   Here's a post using slrn, which shells out to nano when I post or reply.

   I'm not sure why Thunderbird put the newsgroup area tag in the "To" field, but   
   that can probably be changed in your Thunderbird settings. Out of both posts   
   that came through, neither of them show your email in the "From" field, so   
   either Synchronet or clrghaus probably removed that for you.   
      
   One of the main things that bothers me about NNTP is by default all of your   
   posts will be "To: All" unless you are able to force the "x-comment-to" field,   
   which is doable in slrn as you can see this message is to you. It's also   
   doable with Thunderbird with some messing with the config, but it's ugly.   
      
   Regards,
