I have a few friends that are interested in some of the newsgroups here, but who cannot rn from their sites. Is there some way to get the news from a specific group mailed to them. My only thoughts on this are to save every message then email the whole lot to them each day. I am just looking for an easier, softer way. jack vinson@linc.cis.upenn.edu

Looks something like: MAIL-fred:comp.portable.waterproof,rec.hottubbing::mail fred@waterisus.com Fred won't be able to post, but he can reply to the author easily, if he has an RFC-822-groking mailer (probably a better thing anyway :-).
