The function I find really useful about Gnus is the scoring. Very 
useful for prioritizing the messages (Linus has higher prio than Usenet 
kook of the month). I don't think gmail has that. Procmail is already 
dropping the different mailing list into separate mailboxes for me. I 
just want it to drop the email into something that looks like a NNTP 
spooler.
