Making it possible to revert to old behaviour is IMHO always good, but if it means alot of work maybe it can be removed... the GNUS-NEWS entry should be changed though: ,---- | ** Gnus reads the NOV and articles in the Agent if plugged. | | If one reads an article while plugged, and the article already exists | in the Agent, it won't get downloaded once more. (setq | gnus-agent-cache nil) reverts to the old behavior. `---- OTOH, it doesn't sound like it would generate much work to call the backend directly instead of looking at the cache directory of gnus-agent-cache is null?
