I am new to gnus (although I am a regular Emacs user) and before I decide to adopt it as my main mail client, I would like to clarify the following point. In my Linux box, I use fetchmail for fetching email messages from my provider, and procmail to deliver it to different mailboxes (under $HOME/Mail) according to a set of (procmail) rules. Is it possible to have gnus *and* other email clients to read the email messages in the different mailboxes, in a consistent way? Up to now my preferred mail reader is mutt, so I will not give up of it just now. I intend to start using gnus, but occasionaly still use mutt (or any other email client, for the matter). By consistent I mean new messages first read in gnus will be seen as read (not new) in mutt, and vice-versa. Please, comment on this issue.
