[STATUS] NNTP support (10/17/02)

FYI, the client side of nntpd is essentially complete.  It now works
with Pine, Netscape (Mozilla), and Outlook.  The issue with Netscape and
Outlook was that they both seem REQUIRE support for the XOVER extension
(Netscape because of a bug and Outlook because of poor design).

The only major missing functionality is support for wildmat patterns. 
Right now, only IMAP-style patterns are supported.
