</div>The code at https://github.com/spotweb/spotweb/tree/master/NNTP is
a modified version of 
Net_NNTP (forked Sep 6, 2011). Since this bug is not known to affect
Net_NNTP, it is considered 
bogus - at leat until it has been verified on an actual version of
Net_NNTP.

Based on the error message ("Failed to read from socket..."), the
problem seem to originate from the 
silenced call to fgets() at line 294 of your included version of
Net_NNTP 
(https://github.com/spotweb/spotweb/blob/master/NNTP/Protocol/Client.php).

Try removing the at-sign in front of fgets(), or add something like
"var_dump(error_get_last());" in 
front of line 296.

By the way, a reproducible problem (as it is described on the the
provided link) could have to be 
accompanied by more detail...

Description:
------------
Reference:
https://github.com/spotweb/spotweb/issues/65
https://github.com/spotweb/spotweb/tree/master/NNTP

The NNTP Client is shown to be unstable with the latest PHP releases
that have been released since early 2015. When using SSL connections,
after some time the connection gets terminated with the message 'Failed
to read ...'

Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error occured while connecting to the newsserver:
(-1) Failed to read from socket...! [response: ""]

#0 /volume1/web/NNTP/Protocol/Client.php(296):
Net_NNTP_Protocol_Client->throwError('Failed to read ...')
#1 /volume1/web/NNTP/Protocol/Client.php(279):
