The metamail software -- available from thumper.bellcore.com in the
directory pub/nsb -- can easily be patched into existing mail or news
readers.  The next release of metamail will include a patch for trn,
but nobody has yet sent me a patch for rn.  In general, the patches
for different mail and news readers written in C are almost identical;
for anyone who knows the rn code and who has a copy of the metamail
patches for other C-based mail or news programs, it should take only
a few hours to write and debug an rn patch.

The existing patches are contained in the file "mailers.txt" in the
metamail distribution.  Anyone implementing patches for rn or other
additional mail or news readers is encouraged to send me the patch
for incorporation into a future release.  The next release is 
coming some time in December, so you'll have to act fast if you want
to get your rn patch into it!  -- Nathaniel
