Re: nnimap won't agentize...

[snip! nnimap agent problems]

Further information:
 - I started a new xemacs process and started gnus-unplugged in this
   process 
 - I connected to the net, toggled Gnus over to plugged, and updated
   the nnimap groups, and then took 
	J u
   over the ones that had new unread articles
 - I disconnected from the net, and tried to toggle Gnus to be
   unplugged.  Gnus got stuck with nothing happening
 - C-g was able to unstuck it, but Gnus was still in the plugged state.
   I tried toggling to unplugged two more times with the same
   behaviour 
 - I entered the server buffer and removed the nnimap server from the
   agent control with
	J r
 - Then I was able to toggle Gnus into Unplugged
 - I reentered the server buffer and added the nnimap server to agent
   handling with
	J a
 - Now I was able to enter the agentized nnimap groups in a
  disconnected state
 - I am also able to toggle Gnus between plugged and unplugged

So right now it works, but it remains to be seen how well it works the 
next time I go online and then disconnects.

I guess it is stuff like this people have been thinking of when they
have been talking about "nnimap agent flakiness"...? :-)
