Input messages get +their headers slightly reformatted to match Usenet news +article format. The article is then posted or feeded into +a remote NNTP service (like INN). Delivery must take place +immediately or the transaction fails. OSSP lmtp2nntp +relies on the queuing capabilities of the MTA in order to +provide a fully reliable service. For this the program +returns proper delivery status notification which indi- +cates successful completed action, persistent transient +failure or permanent failure. + +WWW: http://www.ossp.org/ + +-- +thomas.lotterer@cw.com |
