* general performance improvements, but without relying on
XS or pre-built modules any more than we currently do.
+ (Optional Inline::C and user-compiled re2c acceptable)
* mailmap support (same as git) for remapping expired email addresses
+* support remapping of expired URLs similar to mailmap

* POP3 server, since some webmail providers support external POP3:

Perhaps make this depend solely the NNTP server and work as a proxy.

+* DHT (distributed hash table) for mapping Message-IDs to various

+
* optional Cache::FastMmap support so production deployments won't
need Varnish (Varnish doesn't protect NNTP, either)
* linkify thread skeletons better

+ entire message bodies into memory. GMime+Inline::C could work.
* use REQUEST_URI properly for CGI / mod_perl2 compatibility
with Message-IDs which include '%' (done?)
* imperfect scraper importers for obfuscated list archives
(e.g. obfuscated Mailman stuff, Google Groups, etc...)

- the latter is missing from OpenBSD and maybe other distros.

* improve performance and avoid head-of-line blocking on slow storage
* share "git cat-file --batch" processes across inboxes to avoid
* configurable diff output for solver-generated blobs
-* fix search for messages with multiple Subject:/To:/From:/Date:
- headers (some wacky examples out there...)
