A couple of us (users) tried to get subversion developers interested in
a small patchset that did this and add NNTP support to mailer.py some 6
months ago.

(search for "Add NNTP support to mailer.py" in the archives)

Although some other users were interested, it seems that none of the
developers where, so the effort to get this into mailer.py died.
