Hey great, function `nntp-send-nosy-authinfo' worked for me without help
for the first time.  How bout adding a `nntp-send-nosy-authinfo-from-file' 
to the list of available functions for those of us whose current login
name differs from the NNTP server username we authenticate with?  I'm
using the following at the moment.  My ~/.nntp-authinfo file has the
username on the first line and the password on the second line.
