Hi Tracy, Well, I have used Mutt to little to actually tell you anything of value, the only difference I noticed was that Mutt acts more like a Mail Client and Gnus acts more like a News Reader that can also do mail on the side. IMAP seems to work best with the way Gnus works. I can get my Usenet News Groups from SuperNews, Mailing lists from Gmane NNTP Gateway and my Mail Messages through IMAP all inside one application ;-) The only hurdle you might need to get past will be to forget how a standard mail client works. With Gnus you will get a thread like display of all your messages, when you get a new message, only that is displayed and with a simple command you can fetch part or all the thread that message is part of. It also allows you to `split` so you can split off your work, spam and personal mails into groups of their own.
