Ok, I guess I'll have to tell you. Do you think we'll ever get the point of being able to psychicly read things posted by someone elses mind, and are you willing to port gnus to the new system when it comes out (nnmind?) Anyway, I've frequently used the agent heavily in the past (its really cool), but I'd like for gnus to use the agent's cache files when available even if in plugged mode. Or, use a new Semi-plugged mode. Almost-plugged? The whole purpose is that occasionally, I'm plugged so that I can send/post stuff immediately but I still have a cached copy of the articles from the agent's snarf bucket. More importantly, I do this all the time when using nnimap (mainly because nnimap fails under the agent in the first place upon exiting the summary buffer)... How much of a pain would this be? -- "Ninjas aren't dangerous. They're more afraid of you than you are of them."
