Well, that is the whole advantage: to have all
communication under one roof, one interface, one
method/arena of configuration (i.e., Elisp/Emacs),
etc. It is nothing that should be resigned over either
paranoia or self-doubt.
It also leads to new possibilities. While not
necessary it is a pleasant game to seek out such
mini-adventures. They keep you active.
For example, I often write posts to newsgroups and
then I include the e-mails of friends as well (the To:
header) which I know are somewhat into what is
discussed but do not follow the newsgroups anyway.
(To include them is lightning-fast because of the
aliases in the .mailrc file.) Then Gnus inserts
a small message saying it is a curtesy copy of
a newsgroup post...
To get the "other" header in a news as well as mail
setting, do:
(setq message-default-news-headers "To: ")
(setq message-default-mail-headers "Newsgroups: ")

That's normal :)
