sun.nntp

The current cvs code uses sun.nntp package, is which is *a very bad*
idea.. no VM othre sun's one can be used now with james, and not even
the beta of 1.4 will work because it happens not to have that package

I've removed a sun.com import from an nntp class - try that.

Re[2]: sun.nntp

Posted by Harmeet <ha...@kodemuse.com>.
Not sure, my emacs igrep does not show anything under NNTP Server.
However under packaging there is org.apache.james.testing, the class
NNTPClient uses sun.net package. That class has purposes

Primary prurpose: Test the NNTP Client
For this purpose I think using sun.net is ok. It was fast, simple to code,
and provides a base sanity test. aka. Big Bang for buck and separate from
NNTP Server.

Secondry prurpose: Copy the data from an exisiting NNTP Server to expose via
James NNTP Server.
If this becomes more important and is packaged as a separate block, writing
NNTP Client classes may make sense.

BTW. NNTP Package in sun has not changed for the last few years, I doubt it
will be a problem, but if someone has better alternatives, that is great.
