good point... I suppose that as a hack, we could just use an empty list
of recipients for NNTP (no To/Cc/Bcc) and let the NNTP transport extract
the Newsgroups header itself to figure out where it needs to go.

this isn't a a beautiful solution tho :(

I'm not really following why we need to merge the 2 objects. of course,
it's late and I'm tired so maybe I'm just not seeing the obvious :-)

Well, it'd likely reduce the boilerplate code. I'm not really sure how
else it would simplify anything tho...
