Community Forums NNTP bridge

| Sunday, June 6, 2010
Community project for accessing the MS Web-Forums via an open source NNTP newsserver (bridge).

Current features

  • Replaces the MS NNTP Bridge(s) completely
  • Unifies the access to scocial and answers forms to a single NNTP server (no two servers needed!)
  • Autologin and Autominimize
  • Auto login for LiveId, so no need to accept any LiveId dialog
  • Live display of trace messages
  • Displays your email address, if you have configured your username and email (will allow Ctrl-H to work in WLM)
  • X-Face support for MVPs, Microsofties and Admins
  • Encodes Subject/From only, if non-ASCII characters are present
  • MessageId contains a valid domain name
  • The message/thread URL of the forum will be submitted in the Archived-At (RFC5064) header, so you can directly go to the web page
  • Converts "http(s)" links into html links, if posted in plain/text / supports some other markups, like bold/italic/underline and code-tags!
  • Supports the conversion of html-web-articles into plain/text articles for your newsreader
  • Thunderbird can display the article source code ;)
  • Many tracing options to see the newsclients messages/responses
  • You can extend the "CommunityForumsNNTPServer.ArticleConverter" without the LiveID SDK; for compiling the whole source code, you need to download and install the Windows Live ID Client 1.0 SDK
