Paul,
FYI, the NNTP code is not a Mailet. :-) It is one of these:
public class AuthServiceImpl extends AbstractLogEnabled
implements AuthService, Composable, Configurable
and acquired by the NNTPHandler like this:
auth =
(AuthService)componentManager.lookup("org.apache.james.nntpserver.AuthServic
e");
so I presume that it is probably supposed to carry the Component decoration
until you show us how you want that replaced.

We'll get there. There is no way to have a portable Mailet API if Mailets
have to keep getting at non-portable services.

There is a strong relationship is Noel suspects.
You will have to fork the root NNTP block to declare its need for and
get DataSource from ComponentManager in its compose method.
At least until we find a way of eliminating the dar I suggest insecure
anti-pattern of Mailets getting free reign of the ComponentManager.
