Well, it is an option after all. (of course)

Who doesn't want software to work?  If my machine was a P90 I'd use
mutt as well -- but it's not.  I used to use mutt, but I got tired of
being restricted by the configuration.  Being able to write elisp
functions in my config file is what drew me to Gnus -- finally I was
able to configure things they way I wanted ;)
