We're kinda short of disk space, and if we feed news to anyone, then
articles pile up in /usr/spool/uucp waiting to go to that site.
Why shouldn't uucp be able to be told to take the articles from where
they reside in /usr/spool/news? Certain information would have to be
stripped off and replaced by inews upon receipt, of course (Xref,
Date-Received, and so on). Will inews do this correctly anyway?
What problems would such a scheme introduce?
(We're running 2.10.2 on a Perkin-Elmer 3220 under v7.)
