	If you want to let readnews read from a file instead of a pipe,
	set the environment variable PAGER to "more %", e.g.
			PAGER="/usr/ucb/more %"; export PAGER

Well, it works, *but*...  then it doesn't skip the headers.  I think
maybe the right solution is to fix more; have it create a temp file
when reading from a pipe.

P.S. Another gripe:  I can't ``~m'' inside a reply.  I have to remember
the name of the article and :r it in.  Yes, I've heard of the strange
UCBMail interface, but we can't find the right place for it; we have a
different version of the Mail source.  I think I'll switch to Emacs Rnews.
