There is one problem with the proxy - I think Lynx is assuming the
connection is maintained for the snewspost, since I see a connection, but
you do not send any command (which should still be "GET nntp://secnews..."
and lynx breaks the connection if I return any text.
I haven't tried the merge version yet, but will soon.
