EA> What does "spacemacs for Gnus" mean?
An opinionated setup that gets a noob going right away.
My story: I started with John Wiegley's dot-emacs files, spent 3 days trying
to get gmail going, gave up in disgust and shame. Revisited several months
later, spent another 2 days to cobble an essentially unusable setup without
dovecot. Finally, after a week of work, came up with https://github.com/dickmao/gnus-imap-walkthrough.

EA> from it, thanks for the tip!
redguardtoo's document (along with other google hits for "Gnus
tutorial") got me nowhere. It's unfortunate that it received 5000 github
stars (mostly from users in China). By plying Google's search algo,
it has become the unoffical guide to Gnus, which is one reason
among many why Gnus is on the wane relative to notmuch and mu4e.
