Description-en: Offline mail and news package creator (spool version)
Uqwk is a program which collects all of a user's unread mail or news
and formats it into a packet for offline reading. QWK, Simple
Offline Usenet Packet (SOUP), and ZipNews packet formats are supported.
.
Uqwk also accepts reply packets, so replies can be mailed or posted,
depending whether the message is marked private (email) or public (news).
.
Uqwk also supports a small offline command language, so the contents
of the user's .newsrc file can be viewed and manipulated offline.
.
This version accesses newsgroups via a local news spool.
