NNTP auth and repository

Three quick questions:

1) Does NNTP auth work with db user repository?  It doesn't work for me.

2) Is there any plans to make DB repository for NNTP groups and/or messages?

3) With LDAP JDBC is there any interest in have a ldapjdbc user repository?

Yes, NNTP Auth uses the same user repository as SMTP/POP3. If db user
repository works for POP3, it should work for NNTP. Suggest you first
confirm if db user repository is working for POP3.

Yes.
The idea is to move all repositories to Javamail API. At least I have been
monitoring and researching this a bit. I was hoping to do the NNTP migration
to Javamail API after there is a working version for POP3/SMTP.

ATM NNTP has its own file system only repository, after there is move to a
common repository it should be easier to migrate to pipeline/mailet
structure as well as get implementations of JDBC based Javamail store.

Would be interesting. There is a product I think from Octet String that may
be interesting to look at in this context. Ref:
