I had success with Dave Hamilton's *NGate* program importing newsgroups.  
There is also a companion program, *MailGate* used for e-mail transfer using 
SMTP protocol.  Ngate is extremely easy to set up and run.  MailGate requires 
some work.  The sendmail program that comes with os/2 will need to have its 
configuration file, sendmail.uml, converted to use smtp to send mail.  Best 
way to get a feel is to install'em.  :)
Peace,
