GNUS is a program for reading netnews inside GNU Emacs. It is an
integration of two popular newsreaders, rn and vn. GNUS can retrieve
articles from both a local news spool and a remote news spool using NNTP
(RFC977).

You can get it from tut.cis.ohio-state.edu [128.146.8.60] using anonymous
ftp. The latest distribution version of GNUS is 3.10.
