It seems strange to me, to put RSS in the same group as SMTP and NNTP.
To me SMTP and NNTP, like HTTP, are data transfer protocols.
RSS is on the other hand a data (annotation) format which - at least in
principle - can be transferred with any of the protocols mentioned above.
Personally I find it most obvious to transport RSS data over NNTP (but in groups
created for - or at least allowing - the format).
Play well,
Jacob
