Subject: offline agent troubles

Hi all,

I'm using Gnus 5.11 from the CVS HEAD branch of Emacs, and it seems that
some time during the summer my offline agent started misbehaving.  In
this case 'misbehavior' is that:

  * I fire up Gnus in offline mode.

  * I go into online mode, with `J j'

  * I fetch the new article lists with `g' in the group buffer.

  * I start fetching the article headers and bodies, with `J j', while
    still in online mode.

  * Gnus fetches several hundred KB of text.

  * I go into offline mode again.

At this point there are several new articles which my agent has
supposedly fetched for offline reading, but all the `new' articles seem
unfetched and get tagged with `%' when I try to open them.

A second agent run, i.e. with `J j' and then `M-x gnus-agent-batch'
refetches the articles, and then they are indeed available in offline
mode too.

How can I try to find out whythe first agent run seems to download
articles but then wants to refetch them?

- Giorgos
