let a remote site change their newsgroups subscription

 Gup, the Group Update Program is a Unix mail-server that lets a remote
 site change their newsgroups subscription without requiring the
 intervention of the news administrator at the feed site.

 Gup is suited to news administrators that find they are spending an
 inordinate amount of time editing the INN newsfeeds file on behalf of
 the remote sites.
