Why not a simple script that will uqwk mail and news separately? It will
take no longer. That's what I do. Here's a rough guide:

uqwk +m -n
zip MYMAIL.YRN AREAS *.MSG
rm AREAS *.MSG
uqwk -m +n
zip MYNEWS.YRN blah blah
rm files
sz MYMAIL.YRN MYNEWS.YRN
rm *.YRN

Now you know which is which. Do what you like. In fact I have two
scripts. Sometimes I don't want to be bothered with news. In any case:
import *.YRN
