The test was passed on my computer because test.test_nntplib.NetworkedNNTP_SSLTests was skipped because of the configuration of SSL on Ubuntu 20.04 (see issue41561).

After using custom openssl.cnf I get the same errors.

$ OPENSSL_CONF=~/py/openssl.cnf ./python -m test -vuall test_nntplib -m 'test_description*'

The NNTP server nntp.aioe.org is used instead of snews.gmane.org since 2010 (45ca9874955b1eaf3d941b7a278b594fad50d4ee). Sadly there is no reference to any discussion, maybe Antoine remember some details. What other alternatives were considered? How to handle similar breakage of external servers?
