I totally agree with this.

Gnus can do almost everything you can think of with mail, and the
trade-off is you have to spend a quite long time to set it up.

My suggestion is googling the features of each client, just picking
something up and use it for some time, then try new things if you like.

IMHO it is a better idea to make your configurations evolve along with
your experience with Emacs, instead of trying to get everything "set"
before sailing.

And Git is your good friend.
