Are already any PD newsreaders available, that support RFC 1341 (MIME,
a multi body part extension similar to X.400 IPM for RFC 822)? Especially
supporting the character set ISO 8895-1 would be VERY interesting for 
many readers of regional european USENET groups (e.g. de.*).

It's generally fairly easy to modify the existing readers to call an
external program like metamail or MH's mhn to view a MIME article.
I have done this to trn.  I also use MH's mhn to compose articles.
It works fairly well.  If you want the patches for trn, send me
mail.  I'd like to see more readers support MIME.
