Well, this is what I know about CSNEWS. It is a system meant to allow
U of Maine students and others at remote sites to gain access to files
and services of general interest.
Among the services were the maintainence of a BITNAUT's list, a 
VM newsletter ( which was generally OK), etc. 
The last time I tried CSNEWS was a few months ago, so I don't know
what the current status is.

To get more information you may try :
RSCS SMSG MSG MAINE CSNEWS HELP

This is on BITNET of course on a VM machine. You can also use the
SEND command on VAX's.
