I'm after this functionality myself and use the agent like so: '(gnus-agent t) '(gnus-agent-consider-all-articles t) '(gnus-agent-expire-days 36500) '(gnus-agent-mark-unread-after-downloaded nil) There are a couple of problems with this approach: e.g. I have to run gnus-agent-regenerate a couple of times each day since something gets out of whack, and the summary buffer gets terribly confused at times and displays messages that are just not there. I haven't had the time to look more closely at when these problems occur, so I can't be more specific. I'm a lot less happy with gnus since I started using the agent, though :( Niklas
