Has anybody else noticed this problem?  Our net news has no Posting
line so rn uses the Date field instead.  Unfortunately, this line is
missing the day of the week so when news is saved in mailbox format,
Mail doesn't recognize the article as a valid message.

My kludge was to add `date` after echo "$8" in the shell script
mbox.saver. This way I can at least read the saved news later with Mail
even if the date is wrong.

Anybody else have a better suggestion?
