Eventually I gave up with >> a C-g. > A backtrace from here would help (`toggle-debug-on-quit', or perhaps > `toggle-debug-on-signal' is required). Actually, that wasn't necessary. I debugged it by trying gnus-unplugged while connected to the network and noticed that gnus was connecting to my secondary imap server and an nntp server but not to the agentized imap server. I clearly didn't understand that gnus-unplugged still tries to connect to these on the network and that is apparently where things were hanging up. In retrospect it should have been obvious that gnus-unplugged would only attempt to treat agentized groups specially but a warning to that effect in the documentation might be in order in case I'm not the only luser who misunderstands that. I've now added them to the agent and things are working OK. Thanks, -- Dave Goldberg dsg@world.std.com
