Well, OK.  

Let's say I see a reference to Message_ID:  <1965.UUCP@infmx> .

RN seems to have it's own sequential 'article number' method of
finding postings.     

How would one convert the Message_ID into an article number, so
that one could refer to it directly with POSTNEWS or perhaps go
reread it with RN?   Is there a majic utility for this?
