You can set a timeout for anything by using POE::Kernel's delay().
sub _start {
... in addition to the PoCo::Client::NNTP SYNOPSIS code:
$kernel->delay(connect_timeout => 60); # set it
}
sub _connected {
... in addition to the PoCo::Client::NNTP SYNOPSIS code:
$kernel->delay(connect_timeout => undef); # clear it
}
You will need to register a connect_timeout handler in POE::Session-
>create() to catch the timeout.

This module does not specify any timeout, so sometimes my program
seems hanged and does not response.
Is it possible to specify a timeout or lifetime for the event, so it
will quit when reached the specified time?
