Yes, that sounds odd... When I wanted to convert from Agent to gnus
perhaps twenty months ago, gnus was not able to do offline news
reading[1] and too difficult for a gnus newbie to set up for multiple
pop3 mailboxes and only partial support for attachments. I then
dropped the idea to move mail and news to Emacs, kept Agent for news
and found TB! for mail. I've not bothered again to try newer versions
of gnus, i like the GUI of TB! (or many parts of it, there is always
room for improvements)
[1] Here in Europe without toll-free local calls offline operation is
still a must for me...

Peter
