"Genug davon, sich belehren zu lassen, daß Gnus > der Newsreader der Götter sei?" :-) > My way (as native german speaking blond man ;-) ) to a Linux-System was via XEmacs 21.2 for Windows with gnus and the famos Hamster as local News- and Mail-Server. I was dissatisfied with the behavior of OutlookExpress, and an other Hamsteruser told me to give XEmacs/gnus a Chance. I did the Download, installed XEmacs and tried to run gnus. After some mails changed with Michael and the Book "Emacs in 24 hours" i got gnus running. Reading the dinglist was also helpful. In January i changed my Operating System (von Betrübssystem to Betriebssystem (can't translate it)). The most easy Part was to migrate my mails from Windows to Linux. Under Windows i also used the concept of Homedirectory. I burned the custumization Files and Mail- and News Filestructure on CDRom. These files were copied in my Linux Home-Directory and that was it. No Messages lost! And the Sorting- and Scoring-Rules are working fine. The only change was to tell gnus running agentised. Give the Windows-User a Chance to taste the smell of the World of Linux ;-) Maybe one or more will show Bill Gates their Back. I believe, with the comming Registration Policy of M*crosoft, more and more users look for alternatives. An "easy initalising" script will be helpful, because for GUI-Users, there is competition (Konkurrenz) by KMail and KNode. They have the Look and Feel of Outlook Excess. Just my 2 cents Albert. -- Don't take your Organs to Heaven, Heaven knows we need them here. Organspende rettet Leben.
