- Don't like this one. If you want to read old messages, then use
- NEW instead. If I'm using RN, I only want to read the new
- messages, and skip those newsgroups that don't have them. Maybe
- NEW needs to be more like RN.

- Don't get this one.

- I think the would be better suited to NEW not RN.
-
- I'd like to see the W command ask for a file name instead of
- just writing to a file named message. At the local console this
- can be a problem when you think you've hit enough :s.....
