I've been using Gnus for newsgroups for about 12 hours, but it looks like I
won't be able to use it for email --- although my university uses IMAP for
mail, the Gnus I can use is only 5.7, which I gather doesn't support said
protocol.

If someone can tell me how to use IMAP in 5.7 (G/E 20.7), and how to save ng
messages to my mail (or at least bounce them to myself --- I save a lot of
messages to look at later), I'll likely switch, but right now I'll probably go
back to PINE, because I prefer being able to do everything together...
(today, I've been saving messages to ~/mail in my filespace, and using PINE to
move them up to my IMAP space --- not exactly optimal :-( )
