Umm - try looking around in the Script library -

It's been there since June of last year, and has no problems downloading a
message via NNTP. It's actually remarkably simple, even with very few
comments the script and what it does is remarkably understandable.
I agree that the amount (or lack thereof) of documentation on how to do
simple, useful things can be a little frustrating - as a View user, I'm
still a little miffed about the overall lack of online documentation - much
of what View does and how it does it can be derived via probe and other
introspection - but sometimes something more would be nice.
