I signed up for the mailing list and use kmail as my mail client. But if you
use
the mailing list, then you can use whatever works with your e-mail service,
which would presumably include whatever mail clients work on your system. I was
using knode (KDE's newsreader program), but then the state of messages (like
which you've read and the like) is only on one machine. With the mailing list
and IMAP, I can have it synced between machines.
