Some comments were made recently about KDE4, where it was advised "don't
try using just Kmail under a different window manager - use the whole

I kept my gob somewhat shut at that time, because I've been using Knode
for a long time on my headless server. I ssh in from my Mac and open
Knode in X11.
I guess Usenet isn't so popular these days, and I have never been able
to find a Mac native client that I'm happy with.
I like Knode's simple 3-pane layout. Knode has improved visually with
the KDE4 release, but the much debated KDE4 dependencies thing.
It has only just occurred to me today to ask if there's an alternative
that looks & acts just the same, but which isn't part of the whole KDE4
environment.
Any suggestions?
I'm on KDE4 but I use Thunderbird for both Usenet (including this
mailing list through GMane's "mailing-list-to-Usenet" interface) and
email. I like the simplicity and using only one app for both.
