Right now, Pan is better, I'd say.
But newscamel has one feature that I don't think many newsreaders have,
which is recording "read" (red) articles by Message-ID.
That way, no matter which news server you switch to,
it will accurately indicate read articles.
I'm thinking maybe I should go back to Pan, and add that feature.
Issue there is I'm not as strong with C++ as I am with C or perl.
