The OSSP lmtp2nntp program is an LMTP service for use in conjunction
with an MTA (like Sendmail), providing a reliable real-time mail to news
gateway. Input messages get their headers slightly reformatted to match
Usenet news article format. The article is then posted or feeded into
a remote NNTP service (like INN). Delivery must take place immediately
or the transaction fails. OSSP lmtp2nntp relies on the queuing
capabilities of the MTA in order to provide a fully reliable service.
For this the program returns proper delivery status notification which
indicates successful completed action, persistent transient failure or
permanent failure.
