I like it a lot for email (and mailing lists via gmane.org, and RSS/Atom feeds via feedbase.org¹) - but I am biased by having been using it for email for decades by now. The "news reader" way feels very natural to me for email as well - when the whole "Inbox zero"-thing made its entrance, my immediate reaction was: "Huh, that's sort of how I've always done email with Gnus" :-) > In my case I guess I should also set gnus-select-method to '(nnnil) > right and set the mail servers in the secondary, right? I think that is a good way to go, yes. I tried writing a small tutorial on using Gnus for email once, but never quite finished it, it maybe of use to you: · https://koldfront.dk/text/gnus-email-tutorial.html > Thank you again! This was very frustrating and was bugging me very much! You're welcome.
