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

Dave> Interestingly, it does seem to change the behavior of nnir: Dave> http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=9058 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).
