     I tried using gnus for mail.  Now I just use it for news.  I keep seeing 
comments 
from people who enjoy using gnus for mail.  I assume they either have more 
tinker 
times, quicker insights or better luck than I do.

     I use Pegasus ( http://www.pmail.com ) on MS Windows, mostly because it's 
free and 
it's a corporate semistandard where I work.  It's neither miserable nor 
wonderful.  At 
home I use mutt ( http://www.mutt.org ) and enjoy it, but I have RedHat for 
Alpha at 
home.  mutt on windows is evidently less stable.  People seem to think it's 
firming up 
though, and it's part of the Cygwin ( http://cygwin.com ) distribution lately.  
mutt 
claims to support MH folders (and probably does, I just haven't tried).
