(Why) Is it difficult to find this in the manual? ,----[ (info "(gnus)Agent Variables") ] | `gnus-agent' | Is the agent enabled? The default is `t'.

My setup disables the agent globally because I run a local NNTP server (leafnode2) and don't use IMAP much, so I have no need for it. > Not using the agent for non-local servers will probably slow down Gnus > much more, because then it'll download an article from the server each > time it's requested.
