I used to use namazu, then switched to nnmairix. Unfortunately I recently cleaned up my emacs/gnus init files, including a big block of long-commented code (and expletive-littered notes to self) related to my old namazu installation, so I can't really tell you why I switched. All I can remember is that I was happier afterwards. I think it had something to do with the fact that mairix is much more target to email, and had more mail-specific features. Sorry… One disadvantage of mairix is that it only seems to perform ascii indexing, ie no Latin-1 or UTF-8 (is this right?). If you use other languages often, it's something to take into consideration. >> Nnmairix allows you to create persistent groups with a certain query.
