This won't get you messages between already connected clients and servers.

Yes, you might be able to make clients connect, at first, to you and not
a real server, but it is going to be obvious to the client: the connection
won't complete as netcat won't generate the server replies which many
clients now look for to indicate the confirmation of a connection.
