Is the NNTP communication port going to be able to be set on a per system basis? (say I wanted to not use the stock port, but would rather have all of my systems talk on a non-standard port)
Is this in the plans? I have no problems with the implementation of the NNTP protocol as the way to share rooms, and having read through the discussion and progress between you and platanov / veeren, it seems that you are not trying to just turn citadel into an NNTP server, but would rather use the NNTP protocol instead of your own IGNet one. Am I understanding this properly?
If we were able to implement a server whitelist / blacklist for smtp, then I would be fine with using it for server to server communication, but my goal is to cause my network of servers to be an Island for communication amongst themselves, and to have Depth charges, and water mines around the island for stray boats trying to dock... if you understand my meaning.
