Thats because email/news is handled by Mozilla Thunderbird

Downloaded it and run it, but can't find a way to recombine split files in Usenet.

Try Pan, <http://pan.rebelbase.com>. Beats all others I've tried
hands down.

I'm using Konqueror and Netscape. The install kit for Firefox doesn't
install it properly on a SuSE 8.1 system.

I was using Opera until I made the mistake of attempting to upgrade to the
newest version. The newest version doesn't have a place for me to type in
a URL. It only wants to take me to their page. When I try to use it for
some things, it won't let me type stuff into forms etc. For now, I'
staying with what I've got.

That's part of the design. Works great with Pegasus for email and
Agent for a news reader. Focuses on one thing and does it well. And
works with Win95A unlike Explorer.

Just installed it... 1.0 seems to be extremely stable, unlike 1.0RC2 (crashed
or gave blue screens for me every time I looked at it)

I had Opera, but I ran into problems with pages that don't follow standards.
Dropped Opera and changed to Firefox. This has been since June.

.... Which is a feature:

The Mozilla/Netscape mail & news 'support' is so much Bloat anyway because
just about anything *else* is vastly preferable ;-)

I have here:

Firefox (browser)
Sylpheed-Claws (mail)
Gravity (news)

All of this is made easier by using standalone applications. I don't have to
open the browser to check e-mail or read news.

(actually, Sylpheed can do news but it's very limited in this point)

Not to mention that the combined footprint of Firefox+Thunderbird
is larger than the Seamonkey suite (and you wouldn't get Composer).
OTOH, you can do a custom install of Seamonkey
and not install its mail/news client.

I tried Firefox, but I prefer the configuration options of the suite.
