You then, when "plugged" fetch all articles you have marked for download (in the manual). it doesnt work for me as I us multiple gmail accounts and the agent goes haywire. I posted some use cases as to how I thought it could work better or more intuitively while away on hols recently and trying to get the "unplugged" working better in order to reduce online time. I too would be interested to hear of any one else using it regularly.
