gnus
A versatile News and mailing list reader for Emacsen.
/Main/Debian/all/news/Gnus is a message-reading laboratory. This is by far the most
powerful and extensible news reader that I am aware of. It will let
you look at just about anything as if it were a newsgroup. You can
read mail with it, you can browse directories with it, you can ftp
with it---you can even read news with it! It handles single file
groups, MH format folders, mbox files, digests, knows about POP,
etc. It can split incoming mail a la procmail.
This version of gnus handles MIME natively. It adds offline reading
capability with gnus-agent. It is not compatible with older versions
of TM (since a large number of hooks and variables have changed to
allow that). NOTE: Please do not use tm-gnus with this version.
Instead of boring old KILL files, it has an adaptive multifaceted
scoring mechanism -- you add or reduce the score of the article based
on rules, and a component of the score comes in from your past
behaviour -- for example, articles similar to ones you read and saved
get higher scores. This adaptive mechanism is one of the most
interesting part of Gnus.
Gnus tries to empower people who read news the same way Emacs
empowers people who edit text. Gnus sets no limits to what the user
should be allowed to do. Users are encouraged to extend Gnus to make
it behave like they want it to behave. A program should not control
people; people should be empowered to do what they want by using (or
abusing) the program.
Gnus comes by default with XEmacs, but this is a stand alone package
that replaces the stock Gnusii.
A note for people using the nnimap backend: SSL support requires w3-el-e2X;
and even otherwise w3-el makes following hyperlinks in mail and news
easier . The upstream sources for this package are available at
