Thanks for making this! Seems pretty handy. I could use it for automated testing of an NZB downloader client.

But how do I use it? I'd love some instructions :)

Hi and thanks for your input – which is painfully valid! :sweat_smile: This is still very much a work in progress and part of my currently running bachelor thesis. Because of some very specific requirements it is currently unusable outside of the scope of my thesis, but I am planning on making it more generic and publicly usable starting Oct/Nov 2022.

Until then, if it has got to be a Python implementation, you might want to try this fork of the papercut NNTP server: https://github.com/acidburn974/papercut (which is not async, though)

or this NNTP server written in Rust, which seems to be very mature and offers amazing performance: https://github.com/miquels/nntp-rs
