Usenet Archiver connects to Usenet servers, authenticates, and
archives articles from a newsgroup into a `.mbox` file. It's a
simple CLI tool supporting plaintext and SSL connections.

More details are on the Github page.

### Why?

Internet Archive's Usenet data stops ~2013 with many gaps. This
tool helps create updated archives for archivists, historians,
and data hoarders like me.

### Notice

Use ONLY with paid Usenet subs, not free ones like Eternal
September or AIOE. Bans are your fault. Check reddit.com/r/
usenet for paid providers—cheap block accounts available.

**Don't abuse free services!**

AIOE?

What do you have against Eternal-September, which has aggressive
anti-spam measures?
