There are several.  I can read MIME messages on my NeXT, as mail or
news, without a problem.  Get the very latest version of the Andrew
Tool Kit, it handles MIME.  Or, grab metamail (via anonymous FTP,
thumper.bellcore.com:/pub/nsb/mm.tar.Z).  It's a filter that you can
pipe MIME messages through to display them.  Then anyone using a
command line newsreader that can pipe a message through a filter can
read MIME messages.  Maybe it'd make sense to adapt this to a service
so the NewsGrazer folks aren't left behind for too long?
