3# Script to retrieve a single article from a news server, either by
4# message-id or by group name and article number.
5#
6# Usage: nntpid <messageid>
7# or: nntpid messageid (angle brackets optional)
8# or: nntpid news.group.name 1234 (group+number form)
52f9a468 9# or: nntpid -a news.group.name (download all available articles)
3096ed75 10#
11# The name of your news server is obtained from the environment variable
12# NNTPSERVER, or from the file /etc/nntpserver if that's not set.
13#
14# This script supports AUTHINFO GENERIC authentication using the
15# environment variable NNTPAUTH. It will only attempt this if it receives
16# a 480 response from the news server; if your news server isn't paranoid
17# then the script will never need to look at NNTPAUTH.
