I find it kinda odd to have both. for foreign servers, agent wasn't storing an active file until I put them in gnus-secondary-select-methods. is this normal? is this ok? how do I tell agent I only want ten groups fetched every time I "J s"? my newsrc has a couple hundred groups that I'm vaguely interested in but don't read often. it's kinda annoying that agent doesn't store articles in a group until after it fetches them all. if it ever gets interrupted in middle of fetching, it has to start all over. making it async would be good. but in the meantime, howabout a batch-mode fetch? --
