If you ask me, this is a completely artificial distinction. I
personally don't think slrn works well at all, but mutt works
wonderfully. The NNTP support has problems, but mutt is still a better
newsreader for me than slrn, tin, trn, or that other one that used to
be popular. I don't mean to start a fight, just to say that this
answer does not work for everyone.
