I use something like this, along with newsfetch to do the actual fetching:
folder-hook . 'unmy_hdr Newsgroups'
folder-hook . bind pager L list-reply
folder-hook . bind index L list-reply
folder-hook sci.space.history "my_hdr Newsgroups: sci.space.history"
folder-hook News 'macro pager L <reply>\[EMAIL PROTECTED]\n'
folder-hook News 'macro index L <reply>\[EMAIL PROTECTED]\n'
folder-hook News 'set signature=".news-sig"'
