Thanks, I'm in the process of migrating from Thunderbird to mutt/neomutt and am wondering if emacs might have advantages. I already use Emacs for Org Mode.
I'm also looking for a scriptable, text-based RSS reader: https://community.codeselfstudy.com/t/text-based-rss-atom-feed-readers/992 https://community.codeselfstudy.com/t/text-based-rss-atom-fe...
- TeMPOraL 8y ago> am wondering if emacs might have advantages Fresh mu/mu4e user here. The advantages over mutt/neomutt are that your e-mail now becomes the part of the same consistent UX of Emacs, and then every improvement to any of your workflows in Emacs is automatically inherited by your e-mail workflow. This depends on how much you like customizing Emacs and/or writing Emacs Lisp to solve your problems. Some practical examples include: - org-mu4e & org-notmuch will let you link directly to your e-mail messages from your org-mode files; potentially useful if you're using org-capture to quickly add TODOs and notes. - it's trivial to add any kind of template responses, template subresponses, etc. - you can make Emacs automatically do things in response to particular e-mails, or you can compose/send e-mails directly from any elisp code Emacs is a fully programmable environment with lots of existing software packages and the best interoperability story I've ever seen.
- _randyr 8y agoAs you're already using Emacs for org-mode, you could take a look at org-feed [1] for text-based RSS. It places all RSS feeds into a normal org file with headings per source and article. As it's Emacs + org, it's naturally scriptable.
