KNode is an easy-to-use, convenient newsreader. It is intended to allow even newbies to use a newsreader under KDE. KNode also offers advanced features appealing to experienced users.
KNode is an online-reader, but can also, in conjunction with a local news server, be used as an offline-reader.

For those new to reading news and posting articles, I want to recommend the chapter A journey through Usenet. It is not so much about the program KNode as how to move about in the Usenet with its help. In general, it is not sufficient to just master a news reader for writing news articles. Imagine a car driver who masters his car perfectly but does not know about the traffic rules or signs. Do you want to encounter such a driver when out in traffic? So please take your time to learn at least a little about the "traffic rules" of the Usenet. The other participants will thank you.
 | KNode supports you in many cases with hints and warnings. If you do not simply ignore them, you will avoid many beginners' mistakes. But do not exclusively depend on them either. |
