[comp.emacs] rnews bug ?

   I'm facing a rather annoying problem when saving news articles.
Whenever I post an article, I open a file for it and all the answers
expected. If they come by e-mail I just append them to the file
and if they are posted articles I use the 'o' command of rnews.
Unfortunately this eats the last 10 or 15 lines of my file !

   Is there very much interest to rnews ? Are many people using it ?
There was not a big difference between 18.41 and 18.50 rnews.el.  I'm
using it anyway because it permits me to do things rn can't.  And you
can write Lisp rather than another tricky but uncomplete specialized
language. Are you using rn for any valuable reason ?

   I think I'll write some stuff to make rnews more useful (especially
for the 'l' command). But if someone already did that, I will be glad
to use it !
