stuck when going unplugged

stuck when going unplugged

[Steinar Bang]

Platform: XEmacs 20.4, linux, Gnus v5.8.8 (CVS checkout from July 26 2000)

I have four secondary nnimap servers and one nntp primary server under 
agent control.

Right now when I try to go unplugged Gnus is stuck.  I can abort with
`C-c' and operate it in the plugged mode, but I can't go unplugged,
which is a bit of a problem.

One of the nnimap server has possibly two additions for itself under
the agent (I have operated it over an SSH port forward in the weekend.
I changed the gnus-secondary-select-methods entry to accomplish this).

Is there a way to see all servers under agent control, not just the
active ones?  Is there a way to find out where Gnus is stuck when I
try to unplug it?

Look in ~/News/agent/lib/servers.

(setq debug-on-quit t), press C-g and look at the backtrace?

Or was this the stuckness that wasn't possible to abort?  I think the
XEmacs bug need to be fixed before you can diagnose it further.
XEmacs 21.2 is fine in this regard though.
