This shouldn't be necessary.  Maybe you are doing something wrong.

,----[ (info "(gnus)Summary Buffer Lines") ]
| 3.1.1 Summary Buffer Lines
| --------------------------
| 
| You can change the format of the lines in the summary buffer by changing
| the `gnus-summary-line-format' variable.
`----

,----[ (info "(gnus)Sorting the Summary Buffer") ]
| 3.10 Sorting the Summary Buffer
| ===============================
| 
| If you are using a threaded summary display, you can sort the threads by
| setting `gnus-thread-sort-functions', which can be either a single
| function, a list of functions, or a list containing functions and `(not
| some-function)' elements.
| [...]
|    If you are using an unthreaded display for some strange reason or
| other, you have to fiddle with the `gnus-article-sort-functions'
| variable.  It is very similar to the `gnus-thread-sort-functions',
| except that it uses slightly different functions for article
| comparison.

,----[ (info "(gnus)Searching") ]
| 2.18 Searching
| ==============
| 
| * Menu:
| 
| * nnir::                     Searching on IMAP, with swish, namazu, etc.
| * nnmairix::                 Searching maildir, MH or mbox with Mairix.

> (4) Work out how to read HTML mails that people send me with w3m

w3m is the default (in the current Gnus version) if w3m (the binary)
and/or emacs-w3m are installed.

,----[ (info "(emacs-mime)Display Customization") ]
| `mm-text-html-renderer'
|      This selects the function used to render HTML.  The predefined
|      renderers are selected by the symbols `w3', `w3m'(1), `links',
|      `lynx', `w3m-standalone' or `html2text'.  If `nil' use an external
|      viewer.  You can also specify a function, which will be called
|      with a MIME handle as the argument.

Bye, Reiner.
