I did look into Gnus and saw some amazing features there. However, mu4e is pretty straight forward and has a strong search engine included which means that I can use my setup on both Linux and the Mac. As I understand, I would need to set up a local mail server for Gnus if I wanted reasonably fast search. Having multiple (and sometimes changing) mail accounts that I would need to configure on multiple OSs kept me from doing that. So to me, mu4e is easier, though Gnus might be simpler in the true sense of the word. Not saying that Gnus doesn't have merit, though. It's a fascinating piece of engineering. And when I get older (already old^^), and only have one business running in parallel and no more need for the Mac, I'll probably switch(;
