Yes, and there's more. Emacs comes also with MH-E which is a very good
system as well. If you look at non-bundled packages, there's also Mew
and I'm sure I'm forgetting a couple more.
Tho in practice if you want to directly access an IMAP mailbox (seems to be
the standard nowadays), I think Gnus is your only real choice. he upside
of that is that it's a pretty damn good choice. The only problem I have
with it is that its IMAP support is slow if you have many folders.
