"There" meaning that I'd have an email CLI using maildirs as folders?
I was unaware that GNUS was a CLI; I thought it ran inside Emacs.

Yes, I do like it.

I can't find anything about this at the GNUS site. Can you give me a more
specific pointer? If GNUS supports maildir as a folder, then that makes three
such mailers (mutt and Pine being the other two).
Note, though, that I'm only interested in mailers which don't break
concurrency. I'm still evaluating the choices, but they do things which make
me nervous, like using collision-prone file names.

Although I question the wisdom of mailreaders getting into the MTA/MDA
business.
