I also had problems with the agent and disabled it after verifying that the nnimap slowdowns were happening with or without it. I agentized my nnimap server from the server buffer, exactly according to the manual. I noticed: - the highlighting was strange, everything was sort of purple - I lost ticked articles on one visit to a group, but they came back on the next visit - the agent would check thousands of messages every time I moved a message to another group or quit the current one I'm not sure what I did wrong, but I don't believe I have an unusual setup except for using spam.el and gnus-registry.el maybe. I'm running without the agent and everything seems normal again. Ted
