I'm using the DOS net software (KA9Q, I think) downloaded from the guest
account.  Mail works fine so if anyone is willing and able to help, please
mail me. 

News articles are downloading to my machine when I dial up but then I get a 
message saying "Unbatch cannot create a temporary file".  I've tried running
unbatch from dos with different arguments to no avail.  Whenever I try to read 
news, (using snews) the appropriate newsgroups appear but they all appear to 
have 0 posts.  My hard disk is not full!

What am I doing wrong?
