Tell me more! From reading what passed for the Gnus documentation, it's not clear whether I can stomach moving to its "newsreading" paradigm for e-mail. I'm quite comfortable with seeing a unified inbox of my unread messages with auto-refiling based on a bazillion rules that I've slowly cobbled together over time. Can Gnus be convinced to do all this?

Is there such a thing as a beginner's guide to Gnus? I've done a fair bit of hunting around the Web and I haven't found anything terribly enlightening.
