DEC's gateway (at decwrl) batches all the day's news together per
newsgroup and ships it off as one large mail message.  People
reading via VMS mail can't even know how large the file is until
they get to the end of the message.

Paul - extract the message to a file, and use an intelligent
utility (are there such things on VMess?) to skip articles (look
for Subject: lines).

Fred - keep 'em coming, man!
