Hi, I have a set of patches that I have been working on for the NNTPClient/NNTP classes. If possible, I would like to get these in before a freeze for the 1.1 release. Some of the enhancements I have been adding are:
1. The XOVER command (RFC 2980) 2. The XHDR command (RFC 2980) 3. The LIST ACTIVE command (RFC 2980) 4. The AUTHINFO USER/AUTHINFO PASS commands (RFC 2980) 5. Convenience methods to wrap the above in the NNTPClient class, e.g. retrieveHeaderRange(), retrieveArticleInfo(), etc. I started making these changes whilst building a Web interface for some of our newsgroups. I haven't had a chance to work on it in the last month or so due to other commitments, however, I will be able to get back onto it by tomorrow at the latest. What I will do is clean up the additions and post them to the list for review, if thats acceptable. Cheers Rory > -----Original Message----- > From: Daniel F.
