for lugnet.trains by using PHP's IMAP functions to read the NNTP feed.
A trains specific RSS feed would be of interest.

To do that properly though, I'd have to actually keep a history of every
lugnet post - otherwise, if there weren't any train posts in the last
20, the train specific RSS feed would be empty.  Not terrible, but not
exactly desireable.

Not saying it's impossible to do, just more work than I was going to put
in for this at this point.  Maybe in the future.

I also don't understand why IE can't read the LUGNET RSS feed? IE
doesn't have any problems with RSS feeds from PostNuke based sites.
All of the following render fine for me in IE 6.0.

I believe the problem was special chars not being encoded properly - in
the subject or in the post body.  Should be fixed now though.
