Hi,

Is it possible to have access to FTN netmail via Synchronet's NNTP server?

For Sysops, yes. That's what the -mail option for the nntpservice does:

I see, thanks.

Any plans to make netmail available for normal (nntp) users?

That'd be kind of weird. You can't *send* FTN netmail via NNTP, so the user would have no way to reply. News (nntp) readers aren't really expecting 1:1 (e.g. netmail) messaging in the first place.

Yeah, back in the day, one would have replied via e-mail for a 1:1 reply
from a usenet message.

Of course it'd be more complicated than making netmail available to terminal or web-interface users... But if you use NNTP to participate in echomail areas, it may be convenient to have access to netmail.

JamNNTPd's author found a way to do it:

> ==========================

6.7 Netmail
-----------
JamNNTPd now also supports netmail. In netmail areas, users can only read
messages to or from one of the names configured in the jamnntpd.users file.
Replies to netmails are handled transparently and the name and address of
the recipient are taken from the original message. When a user wants to write
a new netmail, the name and address of the recipient are specified on the
first line of the new message using this format:

To: name,address

Example:

To: Johan Billing, 2:15/87

A To: line can also be used to specify an alternative recipient in both
netmail and echomail areas.
