Nah. NNTP is just one-to-many email. It was supposed to be ephemeral,

NNTP was designed originally as a mechanism to allow network
readers access to a BNEWS or CNEWS setup. In the olden days,
usenet readers had to log into the unix system with the newsfeed
in order to read usenet (using rn, trn, et alia tools).

NNTP is not, and was never a "one-to-many email". If anything,
it's a store-and-forward setup, but in today's parlance, it's
a publish-subscribe setup.
Er WTF?
