- For non-anonymous access, c-client should do .newsrc-style
- preservation of \SEEN state. You proabably don't want to use .newsrc
- itself in order to avoid interaction with netnews systems.
-
- Other flags (except \RECENT) are associated with the bboard and should
- only be manipulated if the user has write access to the bboard (and
- only if you want to deal with the locking issues)
-
- The "don't want /usr/spool/bboard to be exported to anonymous" issue
- is just an instance of the ACL problem.

- netnews driver first, followed by the bezerk and tenex drivers?
