 A: This is a known phenomena and I believe that it is a bug with GNUS, because
    the log files show correct handling of client commands by noffle.
 
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Q: What is the NOFFLE 'online' mode?
+
+A: NOFFLE can be optionally switched into 'online' mode. When in
+   online mode any newsgroup can be read and the selected articles are
+   fetched immediately from the remote server if not present
+   locally. Regardless of the settings in noffle.conf, NOFFLE will not
+   automatically subscribe to any newsgroup when in online mode. Online
+   mode is therefore useful for quickly sampling the content of
+   potentially interesting newsgroups.
+
+  To enter online mode, run 'noffle --online'. To return the regular
+  offline mode, run 'noffle --offline'. If you net connection is via
+  dial-up, you may find it convenient to do this in your ip-up and
+  ip-down scripts, though if you do you'll have to remember that NOFFLE's
+  behaviour will be subtly different when you are dialled out.
+
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Q: Can I read any article in 'online' mode?
+
+A: No. You cannot read groups that are not known to NOFFLE, or articles
+   that NOFFLE has already expired. NOFFLE will not refetch expired articles.
