(On, e.g., FreeBSD:)

cd /usr/ports/mail/lmtp2nntp
make install clean

Voila!

Alternatively:

cd /usr/ports/news/p5-Gateway/
make install clean
[[Use News::Gateway Perl module...]]

Again, Voila!

:-)

Personally, I despise mail->news gateways, at least unsanctioned or
unknown ones.

Cheers,

Paul.
