Thanks.  I'll give Sabnzbd and nzbmatrix a try.  I originally wanted to 
download the headers for each group and search them because usenet 
search engines I've tried work, but sometimes don't find something that 
another will.  However I gave up on that idea because every usenet 
client I tried doesn't handle the larger groups well.
