easier said than done ;) I am not using a mail software to communicate
with the buildroot mailinglist. Instead leafnode downloads all
newsgroups I am interested in, then I am currently using pan to read the
newsgroups, but it can not send mails: 
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=391649 

Getting knode to work was not possible due to a broken akanodi setup,
the kde stuff is so closely integrated that at the end knode was unable
to download a single message from my leafnode server...
Icedove/claws-mail look horrible, they are no real newsreaders so I
setup wine instead to run Xnews, my favourite newsreader, which I am
trying right now. I hope you receive an email as well but beware that it
will be addressed to a gmane.org address because I am receiving the
buildroot newsgroup via gmane.org.

I will try and report back, but this package has low priority for me.
