[NTLK] Update for Current NPDS Release | NoteServ 2.112 | nHTTPd 2.111 |

[DB]

While I don't have a NPDS (thought about it though) it is great to be
able to fix this problem against the slime of the internet.  I have been
watching this saga with great interest.  I do know about spam.  I have
had spam issues over the years, not against a NPDS, but it is no less
abusive.  The worst was a email spam bomber I had a few years ago with
200 messages a hour coming in.  That was difficult to say the least.
Filters are better these days, but still, what a waste of resources.
