在 KDE-PIM 計畫提供了Knode 應用程式，它可以用來讀取郵件列表完全分離你的普通郵件。

用 KNode 閱讀郵件

您可以在你的應用程式啟動器通過搜索找到KNode。如果你還沒有安裝，您可能需要從您的發行版的套件包安裝它。

KNode開啟後，設定使用的 帳戶 標籤，並單擊新增以 添加 一個新的新聞組伺服器。

KNode 是一個真正的Usenet新聞閱讀器。Usenet新聞是世界上最早的形式在網際網路上交流。Gmane 是一個提供訂閱服務數以百計的公共郵件列表的網站，以及提供結果給任何想要使用它的人。 通過使用Node和Gmane，我們可以閱讀和回复Gmane上的任何的郵件列表。設定KNode使用伺服器news.gmane.org 和端口 119。 同樣重要的是將您的姓名和電子郵件地址設定在身份標籤。通過輸入您的電子郵件地址Gmane將允許您透過他們的伺服器發送郵件。

下一步，KNode選擇新的Gmane項目並選取訂閱新聞組。讓它取得Gmane新聞組清單。新聞組在Usenet是相等於郵件列表。

現在您可以搜索和訂閱數以百計Gmane上的郵件列表，包括KDE相關的列表、許多發行版、以及非技術列表像是背包和自行車。

用KNode回覆郵件

到目前為止，我們只設定KNode閱讀郵件列表。 要回覆郵件並創建自己的電子郵件行程，我們需要設定發送郵件。

轉到帳戶標籤，並在這時候選擇郵件伺服器（SMTP），然後單擊新增。請輸入您的發送郵件資訊。如果您已經設定KMail為發送郵件，這時應該包含相同的細節內容。多人使用一個單獨的電子郵件地址發送到郵件列表可以減少垃圾郵件。

Subscribing to mailing lists

Before sending a message to the mailing list, you may need to subscribe to the list. Many mailing lists block emails from email addresses which are not subscribed to the list. For example, to subscribe to the kde-users mailing list ([email protected]), find the listinfo page on the KDE software users' mailing list page. After you subscribe to the list and reply to the confirmation email, you're nearly ready to start posting to the mailing list. Go to your options page for the mailing list and turn off mail delivery (look for a link on emails that contain the word "mailman", which is the most common list server - you need to scroll right down the page to find the button "Unsubscribe or edit options".). As you are reading the mailing list through KNode+Gmane, you don't need to have the mail also delivered to your email account.

When you first send a message to a mailing list through KNode, you will recieve a confirmation request email from Gmane. You only have to reply to that once. All subsequent messages sent through KNode will be sent immediately for a complete mailing list experience. If you do not receive an email from Gmane the first time you send a message to a list, make sure you have correctly set your email address in the identity tab when configuring KNode to use Gmane.

Other tips

If you want to use KNode with lists that are not covered by Gmane, you can ask Gmane to subscribe to the list here.

If you are subscribed to private mailing lists, but still want to use KNode to read and write to them, it is possible to install a local leafnode server for that purpose.

Developers, take note

If you are a developer interested in Qt, you may find that Gmane does not offer qt mailing lists like qt-interest. Instead a separate server is accessible at nntp.trolltech.com and port 119.

Writing to the list through the nntp server requires activation. See http://qt.nokia.com/newsapply for more.
