I concur. The excellent IMAP speed improvements aren't enough to compensate for my inability to get fancy splitting working (although that's not a new-versus-old-gnus issue -- just a fancy-split-is-hard-to-get-working one). While I was spending time wrestling with lisp, my email backlog grew to over 500 messages. And then it grew further, to almost 1000, when at one point Gnus decided to mark all my messages as read and I had no choice but to unmark enough back in time so as to be sure I caught everything I hadn't yet handled! Given that one of the reasons I moved to gnus was because of its support for org-mode and org-mode itself is hard enough to learn, I'm temporarily (I hope) having to revert to gmail via a browser (cue sound of chicken clucking :-) ), at least until such times as I've gotten my arms around org and can maybe have another crack at fancy splitting.
