the advantage of that being that the spooler isn't being spammed by
the clients to see if there's new msgs, but instead notifies them when
they are...  Also that will make the messages get to the user faster,
since it won't be based on the 1min/5min polling.

which brings me to another idea I've been playing with - a lugnet/ICQ portal...
instead of getting messages through the mail, or through NNTP, have them
appear in your icq client...  either set up a user for each newsgroup you're
subscribed to, or as one user...

the only problem is that I'm not sure how complete the perl ICQ module is. :P
