Question:

Is there any way to read mail on machine "a" but have articles
saved/appended on machine "b".  Both machines are connected over 
ethernet.

The reason I need to do this is that machine "a" which has "rn - News"
installed on it has little extra disk space to store articles that
I like to pull off the net.

Currentlt I have to send everything over from "a" to "b" and them
manually concat. similarly named files together --> PAIN.  Any 
advice is appreciated.

                                   /
