So I made my own copy of nntp-open-telnet with the minor tweaks necessary to use stelnet and set nntp-open-server-function to point to it. Worked fine in september gnus. Doesn't work in rgnus, even taking into account rename to nntp-open-connection-function. If I do (setq nntp-open-connection-function 'nntp-open-gateme) its value reverts to 'nntp-open-network-stream when gnus starts up. So I tried to set it from a nntp-prepare-server-hook. But the hook is set to nil when I run gnus. --tony
