Indeed, only in old-pan.  New pan doesn't have folders, and from 
Beartooth's headers (he's using gmane's list2news to view the list as a 
group, as am I):

>> User-Agent: Pan/0.132 (Waxed in Black)

Beartooth, if there's a way to do it directly, I'm not aware of it.

Now there's something that'll do it, sort of, but I'm not sure it's going 
to do what you want:

Select the thread in pan and do a save-as.  In the resulting dialog, 
choose text, and point it at an appropriate directory.  You'll have all 
the messages saved there in raw text format, complete with any 
attachments they may have had.  Depending on how you plan to use them, 
this /might/ be enough, as you'll have them on the filesystem, but not in 
mail.

If you want them in mail, you can of course then take all the messages 
and attach them to a mail message, so it's one mail message containing as 
attachments all the text files that are news messages.  Again, depending 
on exactly how you planned to use them, this might be sufficient, or 
not.  You have them in mail that way, but not as attachments to a single 
message, not as individual messages.

If neither of those suffices I believe you're back to working them one by 
one.
