- Bill Rubin remarked a few days (or was it weeks?) ago that IBM is looking at
- providing a PM version of a NewsReader with the TCP/IP product and is trying
- to get it out on software.watson.ibm.com.
-
- A non-PM newsreader is available in the \TCPIP\SAMPLES\RN directory. It has
- some big limitations (64K max article size amongst others), but it will work.
- Try that one for a while, but keep your eyes open on software.watson.ibm.com.

- P.S. This was prepared from a PM news reader program and the Enhanced Editor.
