I've now tried using POST instead of IHAVE and in use I can see no 
difference. However, the file needs of POST are simpler so, unless 
something nasty shows up, I'll stick with it.

I'm using a .txt suffix, but in a separate news post directory -  
~/spool/nqueue. I've hacked up an Snews to do the business.
