Tell them to get a SOUP-compatible reader instead. QWK is fundamentally
broken for news reading, whereas SOUP uses USENET's native formats.
Information about SOUP can be found in the FAQ for
comp.os.msdos.mail-news. If they refuse to use anything other than QWK,
ignore them. QWK was never intended for USENET.

Cheers,

Rhys.
