When you are rsync’ing between two machines, you need to do it for the
following files/directories:

~/News/
~/Mail/
~/.gnus.el
~/emacs.d/ ; (this is required for syncing other Emacs settings)
~/.newsrc  ; (there are multiple formats newsrc.eld, newsrc.el
           ; or just .newsrc, This is what you are looking for.)
~/.authinfo.gpg ; (.newsrc, .authinfo etc.)

Others, please add if I am missing some files/dirs.
