It shouldn't even be too difficult to implement for SuSE, because SSLUG also uses qmail and ezmlm.
Correct, it is easy. I even did it once myself on a c-news server I ran for the Navy. If "I" can do it on a SunOS 4.1.3 c-news system, "SuSE" can certainly do it! I really think that anyone who objects to USENET hasn't actually used it. USENET is far superior to any web-based clone and has all the advantages of email. A dedicated news server would be able to online-archive the entire SuSE email traffic for hundreds of years! I notice that there is an alt.linux.suse newsgoup. Alas, the alt groups are usually disallowed in business and government environments. The advantage of implementing a dedicated corporate news server is that the hierachy can be designed without having to submit to the public newsgroup creation process. You just do it!
