19.08 Why doesn't nn display messages when not using NNTP?

Date: Mon, 1 Aug 1994 00:00:00 -0800

  If the database was built with NNTP, then nn has to use NNTP to read
  the messages.  This is not true in the other direction: nn clients
  can use NNTP to read the messages from a database built via NFS.
  The moral: build the database via NFS if you intend to use nn with
  either NFS or NNTP.
