Ahh, I misunderstood. Try (nnir "nnimap:BoostPro") (in general you can
get the server corresponding to a select method using
`gnus-method-to-server').

Ahh, again I misunderstood. nnir searching (for imap groups) talks
directly with the imap server to find the relevant articles. Once found,
nnir passes the info off to the /regular/ nnimap select method to handle
retrieving the article. I guess this second step is somehow running
afoul of the agent. Probably I need to set up some agent variables
between the two steps. I'll look into this (but probably not soon).
