Hello world,

Occasionally I hit 'g' when I'm still unplugged.  Silly me, I
know.  Unfortunately, gnus just says I have no mail and
sometimes I walk away.  Is there a hook I could snag to do
something else, like (message "You're unplugged ya mamoron").

I do that all the time, and it should be no problem.  It's nice to see
the nndraft:queue group growing, and growing, and...

Does Gnus do anything bad when you do that?

As I reported:  It makes remote groups inaccessible.

Yeah, that's true...

Nothing bad.  That's why I asked about a hook, I don't really think
the default behavior is wrong, I'd just like a different behavior.

Right now it just says "Checking new news...done" and gives me
the mistaken impression that I've got no mail, could it say
"Checking new news, unplugged...done", instead?

Same for me, nothing has changed since we both (and others) reported this bug.

You may have some plugged groups, so Gnus can't really say that.
