I didn't find there to be any extra complexity in using Gnus to read
from an IMAP server as opposed to a local spool.
If you already use Gnus as a newsreader and you subscribe to any
mailing lists, I can't see there being a better tool than Gnus to
actually get _value_ out of the mailing lists. Reading lists always
seemed like a hopeless mess with other mail tools. Personal mail
benefits as well. Gnus is the only thing that could finally knock me
off of Outlook and Pine. If only we didn't need Outlook at work...
