# Where do I find out about "reflector" programs that read (and hopefully

You could probably use the "digest" program to do that.  The trick
would be deciding which articles to feed it.  Feeding it everything
from a certain newsgroup would probably be easy; you'd just need to
add it to your system's news "sys" file.  Selectivly feeding it
articles would be trickier.

It's available for anonymous FTP from FTP.GreatCircle.COM, file
"pub/list-managers/tools/digest.shar".
