Not many, just with icedove and "openssl s_client". Although I have a
few tens of users on my news server, I haven't got the faintest idea
what clients they are using, but nobody has complained so far ;-)

In the end, I think it'll be the admins decision like it is with web
servers.

When you integrate this for jessie, I'd suggest using "secure"
defaults, as people upgrading from wheezy would expect things to
change. So, no SSLv3, and prefer_server_ciphers true. OTOH, upstream
now has "compatible" defaults in 2.5.4. 

Please also note that instead of using the patch I attached to the
original message, you may want to use
https://inn.eyrie.org/trac/changeset/9745 to keep in line with
upstream.

ciao,

cm.
