It parses the string as a message-id rather than a host name. Instead, browse the nntp server with `B nntp RET sunsite.auc.dk RET' move point to the emacs.ding group, and press `u' to subscribe to the group. Press `l' to get the normal group buffer back. This didn't work for me -- instead, I got: Unable to contact server: sunsite.auc.dk DNEWS Version 2.5g, posting OK which looks a lot like I *was* able to contact the server, but for some reason Gnus didn't parse the response correctly. This is running gnus v5.2.40 on emacs 19.30. SBB
