Yes, if the mime type is message/news, then you should define an external
converter for that mime type.

See http://www.htdig.org/attrs.html#external_parsers

E.g.:

    external_parsers:   message/news->text/plain /usr/local/bin/convnews

where convnews is a script that converts the news message to plain text.
If it's already in that format, it could just be a simple shell script
that does a "cat $1".  If it's already in HTML, or easily converted to
HTML, then you can use text/html instead of text/plain as the target
mime type in the external_parsers definition above.

and http://www.htdig.org/FAQ.html#q4.9
for further examples.
