You need to install the mozilla-mail RPM to get the mail and news client.

The latest version of the mozilla suite for FC2 is 1.7.3, available from 
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/2/i386/ and 
other mirrors of that site, e.g. 
http://ftp.nluug.nl/ftp/pub/os/Linux/distr/fedora/updates/2/i386/
