Scripts for NNTP reading and/or posting?

Does anyone have such a beastie? I can't even get to first base.

The following doesn't work ...

$hostNNTP = "news.swiftdsl.com.au:119/nntp";
$nntp = imap_open( "{" . $hostNNTP . "}comp.lang.clipper.visual-objects", "",
"", OP_HALFOPEN) or header("Location: error.php?ec=3");
It displays an error message "Warning: imap_thread returned an empty tree in
list.php on line 53"
In looking around, I've found a couple of classes that try to connect to my
available NNTP servers, but they too don't seem to be working as I expect.

TIA for any and all assistance.

Interesting site. Many thanx for this.

The scripts I downloaded look like an interesting place to start this from; I've
managed to get them working to a point thus far. Enough to give me confidence to
move ahead with what I want to do. :)
