I'd suggest you go to http://www.crasseux.com/emacs/ and get the CVS Emacs he compiled for Windows, as this gives you support for images which 21.3 under Windows still lacks. Then get the Gnus Tarball, extract it, call make.bat with the appropriate parameters and you should be done. Oh, you probably want to set $HOME, this can be done under Section System of the Windows Control Panel. -- Did you ever realize how much text fits in eighty columns? If you now consider that a signature usually consists of up to four lines, this gives you enough space to spread a tremendous amount of information with your messages. So seize this opportunity and don't waste your signature with bullshit nobody will read.
