I recently signed up to a free account at fastmail just to try out IMAP
from Gnus. I have connected fine and can see email just fine. But whats
the story with local buffering?  Is the whole idea of IMAP that this
doesn't happen? Can Gnus do it? What should I do if I want a local copy
in case the network is down?
