Well, I don't know what version of the readnews program you use,
but the one I am using seems to keep track of messages that
were posted to multiple newsgroups, and automatically skips duplicate
articles when I come to them in another group (I know this because I
recently was off the net for about a month and when I got back
I had so much news waiting that it ran out of room in its array
of article ids).
