to supply spool and offline news reading for a configured selection of
newsgroups.  S-news does the minimum required to maintain a conventional news

It provdes a NNTP service and /var/spool/news for local news readers.
It supports any number of incoming news feeds via NNTP either by IHAVE or
suck(1).
Outgoing news feeds are made from locally posted articles and reposted remotly
