It's slow because I use nnimap :)

Maybe I don't need to.  I think I need nnimap so I can check mail with my
phone too.  But, perhaps I am mistaken.  Do any of you use gnus & another
device to read mail, when you're not at your computer?  If so, how do you
handle things?

I was simply saying that I was not biased away from gnus because it wasn't
pretty.  In fact, I'm still willing to give it a shot.  Even if IMAP isn't
the best solution, I can always work out something with fetchmail /
procmail, but, I still need a way to be able to read / check e-mail on my
phone, even if it has already been gathered by fetchmail.  I used to love
the way Mail.app could download mail, but still leave it on the server for
some time . . that could be a solution, since I'm sure fetchmail can do that
too . . .
