Newbie to Knode - when I post a message I get this error:
Unable to load/save configuration.
Wrong permissions on home folder?
You should close KNode now to avoid data loss.

How do I correct that?

Check the permissions on ~, ~/.kde, ~/.kde/share, ~/.kde/share/config,
etc.. look OK, check disk space (also check inode use using "df
-i"---that's caught me out a few times). You can change permissions
using chmod. (Doubtless there are point-and-drool interfaces to
chmod, too---presumably Nautilus and things can change permissions.)

Use Pan, Claws or even another newsreader - there are lots of them.
