Thanks to the following:
	Kurt Jaeger aka PI	(kurt.jaeger@rus.uni-stuttgart.de)
	John Werner		(werner@soe.berkeley.edu)
who pointed me to the `newsgate' package by Rich Salz (rsalz@bbn.com).
`newsgate' includes both `mail2news' and `news2mail'.  There appear to
be two versions floating around--`newsgate' and `newsgate2-beta'.
