The code uses the function nntp-server-buffer a lot.  I've no idea what
that means...?  Is the article saved in nntp-server-buffer and from
there into the agent?  Or is the use of the function nntp-server-buffer
from nnimap completely... weird...?

I tried doing `C-x v g' in gnus-agent.el.  But the command doesn't work
for me (git claims that it doesn't understand the argument -rmaster to
git blame), so I can't see when those lines were last touched.
