MM3 will be a better platform to build something like the NNTP access on. The question in my mind is whether this should be done as part of the various independent (but related) archiver projects, or whether it should be done as a separate "archiver". In mm3, there's an API for feeding posted messages to an IArchiver, but this is quite flexible. I could imagine that something on the other end of this vended messages via NNTP instead of HTTP. The one key difference is that you'd like to be able to post to the mailing list through NNTP, with probably some additional posting rules (e.g. if you're not a member, but we "know" you, or you've been approved for posting a few times, your message wouldn't get held for moderator approval). If I was doing this, I'd probably looks seriously at Twisted as the basis for implementing the NNTP side of things. I haven't looked in quite a while, but at the time, it had great support for NNTP server-side. Cheers, -Barry
