The intention is that you shouldn't do anything to have your nntp and nnimap groups agentized. Right now though, servers in g-s-m or g-s-s-m are not agentized. (E.g., manually added ones in the server buffer.) Maybe they should? > Didn't agentized servers always download headers by default, so > saying `now' seems wrong. When you were plugged, Gnus used headers from the remote server, not the local agent cache, IIRC. Now, Gnus uses headers from the local cache all the time.
