Subject: Emacs for mail: VM - WL - GNUS
Date: Sun, 21 Nov 2010 09:09:07 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <AANLkTimt7SwJZvTo=pe9H3P8-=GQzvy1LuyeUZjP+hn6@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I'm just starting to use emacs for editing and thought about using it
for email as well. I'm a moderator for several groups and have found
Thunderbird a bit slow. I'm hoping that a text email may be quicker. I
tried Cone and Mutt a while ago. I need to use imap and was wondering
if i'd be better off with emacs addons.
What are folk using WL or VM? I've read the gnus pdf and i think i'd
be better off with one of those two.
As for installing:
WL seems ok to follow

VM i find a little heavy! for my knowledge - is there another site
which is easier to follow for a newbie

thanks
