I'm not sure if this is a true bug or not but I wanted to report that gate_news in 2.0.7 works for me. (tm) In my case the innd server is located on the same box as the smtp server so there is no delays in handling connections between mailman and the inn server.
I think the problem is that no newsserver really allows all connects allways. With this problem gate_news can't handle.
I'm not sure I see the point of using an external C program as part of the Mailman package. If you're going to do that why not just disable the Mailman gate_news functions and use one of the many available mail2news/news2mail gateway scripts out there?
Mh, but for the future it's easier and better when mailman has a real gate_news function, he? Like majordomo? So, I allways could try to write it in python, but normal I prefer c, because it's faster. ;)
