[issue5209] nntplib needs updating to RFC 3977

[Martin Panter]

Martin Panter added the comment:

General RFC 3977 support was added as part of Issue 9360 (revision 0077ee30134c), so I am closing this one.

For the record there are a couple bits of the patch that someone might still find useful:
* New NNTP(bind=...) parameter
* More lenient checking for successful authentication status
