Hi,
I'm playing around with nnimap again, and wanted to configure the Gnus
Agent to download all messages (or at least all somewhat recent
messages) to be accessible offline. The issue is that I must be missing
something in the manual, and cannot figure out what I'm doing wrong.
My understanding is that after adding a group using "J a" (I tried both
default and adding it to a custom group), I could use "J s" or "J u" to
fetch messages, right? But in my case, all I get is a
gnus-agent-fetch-session: No servers are covered by the Gnus agent
message. Is there something obvious I am missing?

You also need to add the actual servers. Go to the server view (^ from
the Group buffer) and use "J a" to add specific servers you want under
agent control.

Great, that worked. Thank you!
