Say you have lots of different groups from different on your laptop,
but only agentize, say, nnimap, because those are the only ones you
want to work with while you're on the train.  So you work as normal
when connected to the net, hit a toggle, unplug the laptop and go on
answering your mail while on the train.  You return home, flip the
toggle, and carry on.
