I don't use the agent feature, but I had no trouble finding this by searching info for the word agent.... ---begin-quote Here are some things you should do the first time (or so) that you use the Agent. * Decide which servers should be covered by the Agent. If you have a mail backend, it would probably be nonsensical to have it covered by the Agent. Go to the server buffer (`^' in the group buffer) and press `J a' the server (or servers) that you wish to have covered by the Agent (*Note Server Agent Commands::). This will typically be only the primary select method, which is listed on the bottom in the buffer. * Decide on download policy. *Note Agent Categories:: * Uhm... that's it. ---end-quote So it looks like you never told it not to agentize your mail backend. Do that and you should be OK. -- Dave Goldberg Post: The Mitre Corporation\MS B305\202 Burlington Rd.\Bedford, MA 01730 Phone: 781-271-3887 Email: dsg@mitre.org
