I don't see a lot of searching support -- there's a function for searching the messages or headers of the current folder. But you'll learn a wee bit of elisp and make it do anything you want. There's a ton of functions already available to use and modify (and learn from) and so you might not have write much new elisp to do what you want. I must warn you that there's a lot to learn to get Gnus up and running in a reasonably-customized way, though. There's gobs of customization variables to play with, though XEmacs has a nice menu scheme which can handle most of it if you want to use that. You'll need to learn the emacs Info system and use it a LOT. Beats man pages. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
