No. A newsreader works with NNTP protocol. Some Usenet servers offer SSL support over port 443, but that's certainly not https. I've never heard of an https news service before. Unless you're talking about a web-based newsgroups reader, such as google groups. In the latter case you're completely at the mercy of whatever features Google sees fit to throw your way. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
