Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Library (Lib) Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None >Priority: 4 Submitted By: Aurojit Panda (aurojit) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: NNTPS support in nntplib Initial Comment: This patch adds SSL support for nntplib, since it really isn't that simple to just extend the class and add such support, and there are plenty of NNTP servers out there which can only be accessed over SSL. Should be backwards compatible with nntplib, and has been tested to be as such. Of course this library faces limitations on how well it can authenticate SSL certificates due to current limitations (as of 2.4) in socket.ssl, no new additions seem to have been made in 2.5, at least none are listed ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=1535659&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list Patches@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
