[NNTPCACHE] authinfo

["avrombay@sville.com" <avrombay@sville.com>]

I ran into an issue when connecting to an NNTP proxy server for 
authentication (I don't know which one). The server would not accept my 
authentication.

Issue was solved when I made the following changes in ./src/sockets.c

OLD:
                 fprintf (scfg->fh, "authinfo user %s\r\n", scfg->user);
                 fflush (scfg->fh);
                 if (!Cfget(scfg, buf, sizeof buf))
                         goto dropped;
                 fprintf (scfg->fh, "authinfo pass %s\r\n", scfg->pass);
                 fflush (scfg->fh);
                 if (!Cfget(scfg, buf, sizeof buf))
                         goto dropped;

NEW:
                 fprintf (scfg->fh, "AUTHINFO USER %s\r\n", scfg->user);
                 fflush (scfg->fh);
                 if (!Cfget(scfg, buf, sizeof buf))
                         goto dropped;
                 fprintf (scfg->fh, "AUTHINFO PASS %s\r\n", scfg->pass);
                 fflush (scfg->fh);
                 if (!Cfget(scfg, buf, sizeof buf))
                         goto dropped;
