Why not use rn to normally read the article. Then just use the "s" command
to save the article to a file. You will be asked if rn shall save the
article in mailbox format, which you should answer with "n".
You will then get a normal text file, containing the whole article including
the headers. These can be deleted very easily using an editor.
After this process, you can use the file in any way you want.

have fun
