/*
** nntpxmit - transmit netnews articles across the internet with nntp
**
** This program is for transmitting netnews between sites that offer the
** NNTP service, internet style.  Ideally, there are two forms of
** transmission that can be used in this environment, since the
** communication is interactive (and relatively immediate, when compared
** with UUCP).  They are:  passive poll (what have you gotten lately?) and
** active send (I have `x', do you want it?).  The USENET as a whole
** uniformly uses active send, and where the communication is batched
** (e.g. UUCP, or electronic mail) the software sends without even asking,
** unless it can determine that the article has already been to some site.
**
** It turns out that when you implement passive poll, you have to be
** *very* careful about what you (the server) tell the client, because
** something that you might wish to restrict distribution of (either
** internal newsgroups, or material posted in the international groups in
** local distributions) will otherwise leak out.  It is the case that if
** the server doesn't tell the client that article `x' is there, the
** client won't ask for it.  If the server tells about an article which
** would otherwise stay within some restricted distribution, the onus is
** then on the client to figure out that the article is not appropriate to
** post on its local system.  Of course, at that point, we have already
** wasted the network bandwidth in transferring the article...
**
** This is a roundabout way of saying that this program only implements
** active send.  There will have to be once-over done on the NNTP spec
** before passive poll goes in, because of the problems that I have cited.
