BasicNews is a simple news (NNTP) server for Linux. It's meant to be used as an internal server (eg. as a company news server, or private NNTP server, etc). BasicNews is not able to exchange posts with other servers, as it is designed to run on a leaf site. Keeping it simple allowed me to create an easy to install NNTP server, with no maintenance burden. BasicNews supports authentication of clients, both via internal flat files and via LDAP.

FIDOGATE is a Fido-Internet gateway, a Fido FTN-FTN NetMail gateway, a Fido tosser, a Fido file processor/ticker, and a Fido Areafix/Filefix program

The MSN Compatibility Daemon allows the use of any mail and news software on servers requiring the Microsoft Secure Password Authentication Protocol. It handles the authentication and then serves as a proxy between the server and the client software.
