Well, I am not sure if the NNTP server knows or needs to know all these
things. Every mail and news posting contains references to previous
postings which point to the message id. Therefore I don't think that you
need to gate the mails to an NNTP server. Most MUAs and NNTP clients
process the references and build the thread view by themselves. The mail
archiver MHonArc does the same.

Best regards,
Rene.
