I assume you know about gnus right? Some would say that using slrn, and
mutt with emacs is heresy!
You might want to try the emacswiki it has some good knowledge, if your
really up for some abuse try the emacs irc channel on freenode. Most will
probably point you to the wiki, and laugh unless you find a kind soul who
will help you. But your probably going to get a lot of questions about
the "proper way to use gnus". This might be what your looking for!
