For GNOME there is a reader called PAN. I've heard good things about it, but have not tried it myself.
I like Xemacs/gnus. I REALLY like gnus. It is by far the best news and mail reader I have ever used, and I've tried most of them. It makes use of the frames and drop down menus in xemacs, so it's sort-of a GUI. It is intimately integrated with the most powerful editor on the planet. If you're comfortable with [x]emacs, you might like gnus. If you hate [x]emacs, you probably won't care for gnus either...
Thanks guys, I'm going to take a close look at PAN. If it doesn't work out I may have to learn emacs! Greg -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
