Hmmm....

It's been about 5 years since I used xemacs, and I never used the GNU
version of emacs, cuz I always thought xemacs was better... so I may
just be confused.  But...  With xemacs and gnuclient, IIRC you used
the -nw option to do this.  I assumed emacsclient had something
similar, but looking on the 'Net, it doesn't seem that emacsclient has
a comparable option.

OK, so, from your mail it sounds like you have this part figured out
already, and you're just concerned about the screen switching.  If
not, I still have my .emacs file, in which I load post.el for mail.  I
could post the relevant parts...
