Todd, I tried both trn and slrn on a .newsrc file that tin wouldn't read. They handled it just fine. I've also tried deleting and re-creating .newsrc several times, as well as subscribing to different sets of groups, to see if that would have any (...) (24 years ago, 4-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.nntp)
