Confirmed.

But... > does/can gnus work via --mua= ? ... I don't see a good way to do this, no. A more natural approach would be calling lei from Emacs. I've been thinking a good amount about Emacs integration with lei in the context of piem (<https://git.kyleam.com/piem/>). My initial focus will be something closer to Notmuch's Emacs interface. I'm pretty excited about the it, as it will be the main way I interact with lei (but sadly it'll be at least a few weeks before I have the free time to begin any work on it). The above interface will probably reduce my use of Gnus to lists that don't have public-inbox archives, but I still might try to add some Gnus integration eventually. Gnus has a mairix backend, so that'd be the first placed I'd study for approaching integration.
