Thunderbird does both mail and news. Or at least it did, last time I

He said ".....(semi-)decent mail client like Thunderbird...."
That seems to imply (to me anyway) that one needs a mail client to
read from news.gmane.org and that's just plain wrong.
While *some* mail clients are also NNTP readers it's by no means
universally true.
Just to head this off at the pass: for the purpose of discussion, could
we assume that this particular point doesn't really matter, please?
Thanks
