   Is there a rnews version with a summary function like for rmail? If
   you read news using UNIX rn you can type e.g. "=" to get a summary
   and "c" to purge all unread news.

I don't know about rnews, but both GNUS and gnews have such
capabilities.  They're the more modern, generally preferred news
interfaces for GNU Emacs.
