In a fit of 'I can't stand another moment of thunderbird !' a few days
ago I built both slrn-cvs (slang-2) and tin.  I have to say how good
thunderbird and pan are.  If I had to run a system without X, then I
might just manage with tin, but it would be a struggle.  This is quite
strange, since I quite like mutt, and thought that I would be happy with
either - the main problem is their cache management, not the interface.
  This is sad, as the gmane mirrors of mailing lists are much easier on
the bandwidth/storage than subscribing to mailing lists.

So, IMO, ditch slrn, and use your editorial effort in a more fruitful
area than console newsreaders.
