Hello, tbdev. I've written a small plugin which works like gate translating NNTP to IMAP protocols. It is just a sample, and I published it for everybody who wants to continue develop the subject. Now the plugin works only one way - it can "reflect" NNTP groups into IMAP folders and download the messages. It will receive all messages from the group - and you can implement the way to download only last few messages which were not downloaded yet. Also you can implement the "store" part - to sent the messages to NNTP (it need the other piece of code - to translate SMTP to NNTP).
You can download VC++ 6 project here: http://klirik.narod.ru/arc/news2imap.rar (65.3kb) The compiled plugin is placed here: http://klirik.narod.ru/arc/imapnews.tbp (58.5kb) You can install the plugin usual way. Then create new IMAP mailbox with the parameters: IMAP server: localhost user name - address of nntp server (i.e. news.rol.ru) password - none. If the nntp server require authorization, then use these parameters: IMAP server - localhost user name - [EMAIL PROTECTED] (i.e. [EMAIL PROTECTED]) password - password to access NNTP server. The best way for working - is set up synchronization to synchronize whole messages, but you also can use "headers only" or "headers and text". -- Sincerely, Alexey.
