It seems that I, or whoever writes any future test_nntplib.py, would
have to understand how existing tests such as test_smtplib.py work.  It
looks like that one is setting up some kind of miniature mail server and
accepting a connection on localhost -- neat trick, binding a server
socket to port 0 so it still works if you have a real mail server running.

Anyway, getting good coverage isn't something I can bang out in an
afternoon.  Class NNTPBase and its derivatives (I'm talking post-patch
of course) have lots of methods and I want to cover them as well as
possible.
