I did not see this in a FAQ, so here goes..apologies if I'm rehashing
old stuff. 

 Is there a PD C-language package (AIX/SUNOS in specific, but I'll attempt
to hack any other UNIX variant)that provides a gateway between a
listserv mail server and NNTPD? I see that listserv has a "news"
send/receive gateway, but it appears to require a piece of software
running on my nntp server to take the incoming e-mail message and
convert it into a format NNTP knows how to handle. (if it matters,
C-News is running underneath).

 Any information would be helpful and greatly appreciated.
