GNUS probably is less fat than TB, but not having used TB for years, that only is an uneducated guess. > 4.

In GUIy Emacs you even get images in HTML mail and posts, but its HTML rendering still lacks many bells and whistles. For things like Hackaday's RSS gated via Gwene to NNTP it definitely is nice enough. > I guess it is definitely possible to try downloading this and that and > something more and try setting them up etc - but perhaps someone with > similar situation can direct me with advice according to personal > experience? thanks in advance! There is lots of help about GNUS available in Usenet or via mailing lists (gated to NNTP via Gmane and Gwene) and for a not so serious summary of GNUS read the signature. -- GNUS. The final frontier. They say GNUS has more than 800 commands and functions. Just call them SPELLs! So who needs other MUDs? Be a hero! Survive world wide Emacs. Survive GNUS! (20231209T2338/yeti)
