I have tried to use Gnus agent a couple of times but so far it hasn't
been exactly a pleasant experience. I have pretty much default settings
and all my nntp servers are agentized. Now, in Group buffer I go plugged
(Jj), check new news (g), download them (Js) and go unplugged (Jj)
again. Fine.

Then I enter some group and read news. When exiting from the Summary
buffer it gives me ugly error messages (see below). I answered "yes" to
both of those questions and got back to Group buffer. Can I get rid of
those errors? Looks like there's a bug in Gnus.

Continue? (yes or no)
