Good intentions...

I see no problem with a looser implementation provided doing so does
not break something else.  I would say that shoving fidonet messages
into NNTP is bound to break something anyway.

I haven't read the RFCs cover to cover and probaly won't ever do so.
I'll only read the parts that are relevant to what I am trying to get
working and then test a suite of readers against it.  Call it a 'best
effort'.
