+It is intended to be a full SMTP/NNTP rfc compliant gateway
+with whitelist manager.
+
+You will probably have to install a mail-transport-agent and/or
+news-transport-system package to manage SMTP/NNTP traffic.
+
+MTA is needed for mail2news service, since mail have to be
+processed on a box where pyg is installed. You can use a remote
+smtpserver for news2mail.
+
+News system is useful but not needed, since you can send articles to a
+remote SMTP server (ie: moderated NG) where is installed pyg, otherwise you
+will need it.
+
+It refers to rfc 822 (mail) and 850 (news).
-Pyg is a news to mail and mail to news gateway.
-It is under devel.
