I think the problem is that just about nobody is running nntp I for one would love to make some of
the mailboxes, where I archive some private mailing lists,
available to people via NNTP (read-only) -- one list per
"news-group". In my opinion, it is a method much superior to the
perversely popular HTML archivers (like mhonarc or the mailman's
component), for example.
Unfortunately, every time I ventured to configure such a set up, I could not do it in reasonable time and was forced to abandon the effort. Whereas there are plenty of howtos and manuals for setting up an IMAP-server with Cyrus, the NNTP is either undocumented, or the documentation is so old, it refers to obsoleted versions of the software. If someone using NNTP were to document it, maybe, the user-base would start growing? Maybe, if Cyrus developers "ate their own dogfood" -- keeping the archives of this mailing list available via NNTP, for example?..so it didn't get much testing. Yours, -mi |
