I think by "email methods", the manual means nnmbox, nnmh, nnml, and the like...? It should have some kind of distinction between those methods and nnimap, where it makes perfect sense to use the agent. I guess patches to the manual are welcome...? :-) On a side note: are patches to the manual under the same assignment regime as patches to the .el code? On another note: I've seen issues with nnimap&agent (wrong article cached, NOV lines instead of article in the cached articles), but not the one you're describing.
