I have a newsreader called X-News installed on machine my machine *at
present*. It is a free newsreader as you say. The author explicitly
states in the 'readme' file that X-News is not designed for offline
reading and for those who intended to do a lot of offline reading, he
recommended Agent of Gravity. You are able to save message bodies
between online sessions (though this is not a default setting) and can
first manually retrieve messages and then read them offline. You are
switch from on line to off line as you wish as well. This is unlike
Gravity and Agent where the functionality for allowing offline reading
are better.
