The mutt-devel port has this patch integrated: % grep NNTP /usr/ports/mail/mutt-devel/Makefile | head -1 # WITH_MUTT_NNTP I've used it for a while, and you will most certainly find the following bindings very useful in your .muttrc file if you use it too: bind index C change-newsgroup bind pager C change-newsgroup This is similar to 'c' which changes mail folders, and I find it very easy to remember. The port dumps core on me on -current while it attempts to close the nntp connection, and I have started using Emacs + gnus to read some Usenet stuff, because right now I have no time to debug the problems it appears to have... but I thought I'd post this anyway. - Giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
