That would make a good test of Mystic's nntp service. I have never done that.

I just had a peek at the nntp server setup in ./mystic -cfg. There is also an ssl port listed there although it is blank by default. Synchronet uses port 563 by default for the ssl port. It would be interesting to know how that works.

BBBS can do this too, although it does it like it was 1995. No ssl and no utf8
support. BBBS can peer but it has no nntp server for users to access.

I might be able to use ssl with the right command line, but still.. no server. Bummer.
