Because Gnus is a great piece of software, which at least IMHO requires effort but in the end greatly rewards that effort. Yes, you can copy/edit a basic config and get Gnus running pretty quickly if you're at least somewhat conversant with elisp. But to really benefit from all Gnus has to offer, it will take time and effort, and maybe some pain. If you just want the basics of the basics, rmail is very easy to get started with. But Gnus offers so much. -- Bob Newell Honolulu, Hawai`i Via Linux/Emacs/Gnus/BBDB.
