  3. I use Emacs for most things, but the fact that elisp isn't multithreaded made gnus a painful experience for me. I've had much better luck using Mutt--and setting the program's editor command to emacsclient -nw. Sounds like this guy had a similar experience: http://jfm3-repl.blogspot.com/2007/10/emacs-tricks-7-do-not-...

  5. Not that I use it every day, since my Gmail is not my main e-mail address, but what's wrong with using Gnus + Gmail? This kind of answers my question, but I don't think it's relevant when you have Gmail (or use any other IMAP): http://jfm3-repl.blogspot.com/2007/10/emacs-tricks-7-do-not-...
