Here $nntp is a package variable and is visible anywhere inside the current package. Even if you had used a lexical variable it would be
visible anywhere after this point in the program.

The line of code in question is commented out. $nntp is not a variable,
but part of a comment.

The OP should read the posting guidelines for this group and try asking
the question again.
