Because I sometimes login at an athena cluster, and sometimes dialup,
I've been trying to use both xrn and rrn recently.  However, it seems
that it's somewhat incompatible using both.  Sometimes I read messages
in one, and find myself reading them again in the other.  Also, recently,
I somehow subscribed to all groups.  I know that I didn't do anything
to cause this, unless there's a subscribe-all command in on or the other.

I asked olc about this, and they didn't know if there is supposed to be
a problem, but one of them has had similar troubles.  Is there a way
to get around these problems, other than just using one or the other, 
but not both?
