Description Maciej Pilichowski 2009-02-20 12:55:46 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

UI is as good as it is uniform. KMail uses such terms as "message", "new message", "reply" while KNode uses "article", "post to a newsgroup", "followup to newsgroup".

KNode choice is worse, because:
a) it is not accurate (for example "post" is not really posting anything, it is just composing)
b) it is much more technical
c) it is way longer

However, this wish is not about forcing KMail->KNode terms transition (however I personally opt for this) but to make the naming consistent (in general).

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years so I am closing this bug.
