| No, but its not beyond the scope of gnus (it is just not *worth*
| implementing considering the project size).  Its really not agent

I fully agree. What I was looking for was some other way to do it - or
i can do it myself.

I have, but it's "in the future". And there 

However, I've been experiencing a few problems. I'll try to recap it
here:

- After downloading news, I hit J j to go unplugged and hang up the
phone. I read some news, reply and everything seems fine. Now, the
next time I do the same gnus seems to have forgotten everything about
the articles I've read. They all turn up unread instead.

- Another related(?) problem is that after restarting Gnus it
sometimes is unable to find any articles at all. All the groups are
marked with a *, end even though I'm supposedlly in unplugged mode it
tries to connect to the server.

I haven't really found a pattern in all this, but I'll experiment a
bit at home tonight. If anyone has a setup that works without any such
problems, I'd be more than happy to receive it - it might be me doing
something weird here.
