It's freshly baked by me as of last night, and not fully tested yet, so
not yet generally available. If all goes well, it will be generally
available soon.
My message that started this thread was the first ever to be posted by
Newshound using NNTPS - and this is the second.
NNTPS is secure, like when using STARTTLS, except that it's secure right
from the start.
My main concern at the moment is that it relies on the user specifying
port 563, in order to know to use NNTPS. This won't work if the user's
chosen news server uses some other port for NNTPS. In turn that would
require some other mechanism in the group file to specify NNTPS.
Orpheus's news server and Eternal September both use 563 for NNTPS.
