Previously I use SciTE and I fail setup some lang syntax highlighting. So I look for something... I remember that I learn basic navigation and editing command for 2 week by official refcard. I don't know English and have no Internet connection at that time... Next time I have same issue. I have a lot of trouble withs Thunderbird (it corrupt internal store for RSS/Atom feed for which I subscribed, so does not properly record what I read and what not and do this very often). Next I learn about USENET from Wikipedia and try one. Next I discover that software projects was managed and supported through mail lists. After that I trapped in HighVolume traffic issue. And need new solution (good bye Thunderbird). I hear that mutt and GNUS are the best (feature rich) mail clients. I try read docs for both (also look to claws-mail as it have plugins for "anything"), but don't be ready for such tools. As newbie I can't get directly answer for such questions: * how to deal with high volume traffic * how especially be notified if someone replay to my message or below me in thread I start using Gnus from end of 2011 and this is terrible experience. Ever for today. I delete Thunderbird, copy/paste config from emacswiki to start reading and sending mails in Gnus and print Gnus refcard for key bindings... Several times I integrate gnus configs from blog articles and emacswiki. For example I was surprised by scoring system when look for kill-file feature... Recently I decide to configure Gnus once and for all. I read mostly whole Gnus manual, look for Gnus related articles at emacswiki, perform search queries under Gmane web interface in related groups and perform general search (I find useful mostly blogs and home page writing). But I notice problems behind Gnus that have no solution known to me: * Blocking Emacs during Gnus loading. news.rsdn.ru server have special timing policy for access to their groups, so *Group* buffer can unfreeze after 30 sec... Gnus Agent don't help with this issue I think... I look to INN and Leafnode solutions, but don't understand how Emacs will be send message back to NNTP... * Notification when someone replay to me or articles marked as ticked/dormant (!/?). I expect that Gnus periodically reloads all groups for which I subscribed (and posted to or have ticked/dormant articles) and scans for replays below my messages based on Message-Id. I miss this feature. The reason I switch to Gnus is expectation that Gnus provide this out of the box!! I ask question: Subject: Notifying me to read message from selected groups for new messages only if score greater then N.

Tomorrow I will look to mutt for such feature... -- Best regards!
