DESCRIPTION
Fetchnews retrieves news articles from a peer news server and feeds them to a Cyrus server. Fetchnews connects to the peer specified by

articles.
-y Use 4 instead of 2 digits for year. 2-digits are rfc977- but not y2k-compliant.
-w wildmat
Wildmat pattern specifying which newsgroups to search for new articles. Defaults to "*".
