Thanks! Got the package and unpacked it fine. By the way, fdm is
already pulling my mail and I know it's able to download NNTP articles
too, so chances are it can do what leafnode has been doing for you.
I'll keep you posted. Thanks very much for providing the package.

When I used noffle I didn't know leafnode. :) I got to know leafnode
because I started asking people for something more my way than noffle.
I complained that I preferred articles written on the file system than
stored in a database, so someone pointed out leafnode. Let me see which
I'm still running. It's leafnode-2.0.0.alpha20140727b. So I must have
really stopped noffle. But I did not package leafnode with my
customizations---that I did to noffle only.
And by now I am willing to write a new one from scratch, so I intend to
make leafnode obsolete as well.
