Need E-Mail <=> Netnews Gateway

We currently support several mailing lists.  We would like to provide
bi-directional gatewaying to specific netnews groups.  We do not have
our own news server, but could set one up (though I'd rather not).
Can anyone point me to some software (public domain or commercial both
ok) that will provide bi-directional gatewaying?  It need to run on
Sun/SunOS or Vax/VMS.

Send e-mail to rsalz@uunet.uu.net (Rich Salz). He wrote a package called
newsgate which should be OK for you ...
As far as I know it is still beta and because of that not available on any
ftp-server but I guess Rich might be willing to send you a copy ...

Not true.  It is available as "newsgate" in volume 24 of comp.sources.unix.

[I.e. - you should get it from your nearest c.s.u archive and not bother

My news/mail gateway package, known as "newsgate" appeared in Volume 24
of comp.sources.unix.

I have a more recent version that fixes one or two bugs, adds some
features -- the usual kind of thing.  *That* version is in beta, and is
available only by writing to rsalz@uunet.uu.net, and only if you promise
not to redistribute it anywhere.

If the c.s.unix version works for you, please do not ask for the beta.

I will release it when I get some time.  At that point you will be able
to do anything you want to with the code, as pretty much the case with
almost everything I make available over the net.
