[Xnews works quite well under wine, however, inline jpg images fail.
To repeat, connect to an nntp server, e.g. free.yottanews.com,
and read some newsgroup where people post pictures.
Here are some screenshots of Xnews running in Windows XP:
This one shows a newsgroup with an article highlighted that contains a 
jpg image that I would like to see.

This is the article, opened in XP, showing the jpg image file right on 
the page.

Now the same server and group on Xnews in wine on Fedora 6.

See? No picture. 

Workaround: as described in 
http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=1258
Install native dcom98 & riched20 if you want inline pictures.]
