i took a look at the problem, and i think that NNTP is by far the
easiest protocol to tackle. if we're serious about being able to use a
decoupled subproject for SMTP then i'd much rather have the chance to
try out NNTP first.

then again, i'm unlikely to have a lot of time any time soon so delete
if you want. an alternative solution would be the partial solution
adopted by IMAP: most of the code could easily be moved elsewhere with
a small quantity of binding code retained in trunk. the NNTP would
just be protocol library (connection foo would be required before it
would serve standalone, just like IMAP).
