sure:

http://repo.or.cz/knntp.git
https://files.catbox.moe/wxga1k.png

it is really titled "dingo", not "knntp", but it is not possible to 
rename repos on repo.or.cz. ;-)

but please note that it is not "pure D", i'm using my slightly modified 
dmd/druntime/phobos fork. it is completely compatible with "vanilla", 
but i am usually never "vanilizing" code that i'm not intending to 
announce/present to other people. so you won't be able to build it out 
of the box (yet required changes to "vanilize" it are minimal).

i added a screenshot, so you can make your eyes bleed without building 
my code. ;-)

and i am now writing an email client, with the slightly modified dingo 
engine as backend (and the same eye-bleeding frontend ;-).

it is also using Adam D. Ruppe's simpledisplay.d module to do all the 
low-level gfx, and his email.d module to decode mime messages. and alot 
of my own "iv" modules, of course.
