[neomutt-devel] neomutt NNTP and Active Directory usernames

Great.  I'd welcome any feedback on the NNTP support.

Quick history.  Vsevolod Volkov created a patch for Mutt and maintained
it out-of-tree for twenty years.  We merged and updated it slightly, but
it's still a bit clunky.

Any suggestions you have would be appreciated.

Ah, sorry about that.  It's an overzealous search'n'replace.

I've had a closer look and figured out what to fix, but
it's not a one-liner, so it may not make next week's release.

Reto's fix will be safe enough until then :-)

We'd recommend using `--lmdb` instead of `--tokyocabinet` (if possible).
It's much faster.

Cheers,
    FlatCap / Rich
