RTF and NewsGrazer posts are slightly different; NewsGrazer has a plain-text
version and an RTF version of the contents.  Both can generally be transferred
to a NeXT machine either electronically or physically (via floppy/OD) and then
read with Edit/NGService.

If we have either a lot of files, or large files, net.practice seems to be to
post a pointer to the files and place the actual files on an FTP site.  Nova
is accessible by mail as well, so everyone should be able to get them from
there.
