That brings up another advantage of NNTP servers. It is very old 
technology, meaning the bugs have been worked out of it long ago. There 
is no constant issue of upgrading to the latest version to fix some 
obscure bugs, etc. Just turn it on and it works.

And, lastly, there's a wonderful effect of NNTP not being where the 
"cool guys" are. The spammers overlook us! Sure, we get a drive-by 
slamming from a spammer maybe once a month, but by and large NNTP flies 
under the radar these days.
