In the meantime, remeber you can use import -r if you can get it into
rnews format. If getting it into QWK format is possible there is an
undocumented import switch that will take it that way, though if I recall
correctly Chin said it might not work in all cases. (Don't remember what
it was, maybe -k?, but trying all the letters that aren't documented will
turn it up.)
Just tried it. -K and -P seem to be undocumented switches. I think it
was -K. Anybody know what -P does?
