Hi,

I've been trying to get started with agent but apart from mail I've
had no success.

I already have some newsgroups from my local server in my group buffer 
but this server has not been added to agent.

I recently added some groups on a foreign server with G m to my list. I 
then added this server to agent with J a from the Server
Buffer. I set the category of all the groups to "default" which I
believe has the predicate "true".

When I use J j to become plugged and then J s or J u to get the
messages Gnus downloads all the articles in the groups. If I try to
read these while plugged Gnus fetches them from the server again.

If I then use J j to become unplugged then try to enter the group I
get and error. Below is the debug-on-error output.

I even tried adding this server to the secondary select methods list
but it made no difference.

Signaling: (error "Couldn't request group nntp+news.dircon.co.uk:uk.comp.os.linux: Opened server news.dircon.co.uk using directory ~/News/agent/nntp/news.dircon.co.uk/")
