I'm looking to utilize Mailman's Mail-News and News-Mail gateways, but I'm really not interested in serving any other newsgroups, and I don't particularly need to push these news articles upstream to anyplace. (And I don't want to worry about propogation to subscribers sites, or net-wide spam, so I think I'd like to serve it all from our box.)
Does anyone have a (free?) unix based nntp server they'd suggest that can be configured to be stand-alone (no pushing upstream or downstream), and would handle 10's of local newsgroups and ~1000 subscribers reasonably well?
We're running a FreeBSD box if that matters.
