Help!  When I do a M-x rnews, it goes and "prefrobnicates" and zips through
my subscribed groups and eventually just comes back and says "no news is
good news".  I can't read the articles.  I can list all the groups and it
tells me how many articles there are in each one, but if I go to a group,
there's nothing there.  If I exit emacs and use rn or xrn, it works fine.

What am I doing wrong?

Seeing as I'm having problems with news, replys by email would 
probably be safer :)  Thanx!
