Scoring in gnus is brilliant. I read debian-user just like a
newsgroup so I set up scoring based on what I find interesting. I
also like gnus splitting capabilities. I don't use procmail anymore.
I love being able to arrange my newsgroups and mailgroups based on
topics. I also like being able to cut and paste quickly from other
buffers to mail or newsgroup messages that I am working on. Gnus
handles almost every different kind of mail and nntp backend. I could
go on. Anyone else use gnus?
