It seems like it the package existed previously but has now vanished (https://web.archive.org/web/20240702142343/https://pypi.org/project/nntplib/). Cf https://discuss.python.org/t/allow-nntplib-on-pypi/25786. cc @mcepl, was this intentional? A |

Yes, completely. I have started nntplib package (which was
misnamed, because it was created earlier than the policy was
created [1]) just because I didn’t want it to die. If there is
somebody else willing to maintain it, I will most happily pass
the reins to somebody else.
Best,
Matěj
