subject: UseNet Import Software.

Hi,
I run WildCat! 4.2 Multiline 10 under OS/2 Warp version 3 with FrontDoor 2.12 
SW ( registered ) and FrontDoor 2.02 N.C. with InterEcho 1.19 as my mail 
processor.
I'm looking to import some additional UseNet newsgroups into the BBS without 
further expenditure on either expensive UUCP feeds or costly MSI software ( 
wcGATE ). I would like to use my SMTP connection to receive USENet and then 
use a mail processor ( such as Watergate ) to import the the newsgroups into 
*.msg folders before using InterEcho to toss the *.msg to WildCat! ( well, 
that's the way that I see it anyhow ). I am wondering if anyone else has 
arrived at a solution for this ... ?
I must admit that I'm more interested in information on the establishing the 
PPP connection and receiving of Usenet newsgroups via DOS programs than the 
actual mail processing but any advice will be gratefully received ...
Until Next Now ....
Nigel.
