The tin newsreader, version 1.22. I know 1.3beta is out, but it's changing quite rapidly according to Peter. If someone is willing to maintain it, go ahead and upgrade. By the way, this is the 300th port. Congratulations Peter, you get any ten of the 300 ports for free! :) Submitted by: Peter Wemm <peter@haywire.DIALix.COM>224de7fb76
