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. -- "End of game. New games?
