But you can't always do what you like :-)
I can't imagine you want to here this, but:
My emacs runs on a central host because of the bloated BBDB database.
My netscape runs on the local host because of X timing problems using ssh.
tm writes the html file to /tmp/something and fires up netscape who
tells his colleague to go and find the file which isn't there on the
other machine.
So I revert to (2) and talking about Gnus.
What I would like to know is how to split incoming things to different backends
(with fancy splitting). I just cannot get it to work.
"B m" works, but that's what I would like to avoid.
