I have two related questions:
1. Is there a way to keep Gnus from getting messages from my
servers at startup (but still have 'g' get the messages)? I often
need to just hop in to read an old message, email someone something
quickly, etc. and one of my mail servers is notorious for going down
a lot, which slows down loading and often crashes gnus.
2. If the above is possible, is there a way I might bind keys to check
specific accounts, so I can skip the bad server when I suspect it's down?
I couldn't find anything in the manual or in the past posts on this group...
Thanks in advance,
