Does Newsbin Pro currently support the new RAR 5 compression algorithm?

See the article, "WinRAR 5.0 introduces the new RAR 5 format. What you need to know." for information.
MS Windows 10 Pro 64-Bit I- ASUS P8Z77-V LE; Intel i7-3770K 3.5 GHz; 16.0GB DDR3; 500 Mbps cable internet.

It doesn't but, I can look into it. It's my impression that most posting groups require uncompressed rars because most usenet files don't compress. If I'm right, it means RAR 5 is a non-issue.
