Oh yeah, I'd also second the request to implement client-side caching
of the fetched articles.

Netscape's IMAP support saves all the messages locally for quick
retrieval if you read something twice.  But it also deletes them when
they get deleted on the server.

So gnus's cache stuff is only half the solution.
