I mainly use Outlook Express as a newsreader and access the list
via the gmane archive. That gives me threading as well as all the
other features of news reading - watched threads, kill lists etc

I'm not sure if Thunderbird does n news feeds or is purely email
based? But it might be an option. The snag is that there is
occasionally a short delay between the email going out and
its appearance on gmabe, but its usually insignificant.

HTH,
