I can read news just fine, so this is almost certainly a client
problem.

This is bad.  I'm on one of the old IBM POWERststions if it has anything to do with it.  I typed in xrn.  Every single newsgroup was removed as bogus.  After doing this for a few minutes, it ran out of memory.  Now, it can't read the .newsrc file.  I see other people are xrn'ing, so what's the deal?  I live on xrn, so I really need to get it back.  Help!
