I have compiled tass on NetBSD.  It is a wonderful threaded newsreader along
the same lines as the Elm Mail system.  If your interested in the binaries
let me know or you may want some local customization.  There are quite a few
sites out there that have it.  You can anonymous FTP to my system and get 
it as well.
