mail2news/authentication
Is there any way to specify nnrp username/password stuff for the mail2news gateways here?
I've got all of the mail->news direction stuff stuff silently falling on the floor, though the news->mail direction is working. Am I right thinking that a lack of authentication would cause this symptom?

I did it the quick-and-dirty[*] way.
