This package is designed to let you run a mini-newsspool as user
"news". The spool directory is /var/spool/slrnpull. The system will
automatically expire old articles once per day, and rotate your
slrnpull log (/var/spool/slrnpull/log).

The log is not put in /var/log, to make it possible for users to run
mini-spools out of their own home directories (they would not have
permission to write the log file).

This package does not set up automatic sucking of articles; look at
slrnpull.sh in this directory for an example of how to set this up for
a dialup link
