Description: Mail to News and News to Mail Gateway
 This is a hodge-podge of tools to gate news. Nothing for beginners.
 Assembly required. Among others things this contains:
 .
 This kit provides two programs for "linking" RFC822 Mail messages and
 RFC1036 Usenet News articles.  Each half of the conversion is handled by a
 different program, mail2news or news2mail.  A few utility programs are
 also included.
 .
 With these programs and the right set of mail aliases and news sys and
 active file entries, it is possible to build any set of moderated,
 unmoderated, one-way, or bi-directional gateways between any set of news
 and mail groups and lists that your little heart desires.
