Message-ID: <umzl9pe0v.fsf@boost-consulting.com> (raw)


When Gnus fails to open a server, it's often because of some temporary
connectivity problem that I can easily correct.  I have found that I
always have to answer `y' to the query about whether to take the
server offline, or Gnus (at least the nnimap backend) gets horribly
confused.  Then I have to fix the problem, put the server back online,
and retry.  I'd like Gnus to give me a yes/no/retry option when asking
about taking the server offline.
