  There are suck, newsx and quite a few other programs out there you
  may find worth looking at. Many of them are designed to fetch articles
  via NNTP and to feed them to a local news server (INN, Diablo, etc.).

  Some other programs, e.g. slrn-pull, are written with a newsreader
  in mind that accesses the news spool - this is where the news articles
  are usually stored - directly, not via a news server. Current versions
  of nn can deal with this via nnmaster.
  NOTE: This is not recommended, since future versions of nn will probably
  not support this anymore, so you should use the method mentioned first.

  file?").
