OK, what I did now is the following: I read some news, read some mail, then I hit RET on the group *: nndraft:drafts and get the error "Couldn't activate group nndraft:drafts: ". I then evaluate (switch-to-buffer nntp-server-buffer) and this is the buffer contents: icann.members.announce 11 1 y anschaffungen 126 1 y friends 102 1 y family 110 1 y fhz 51 1 y guile.gtk 72 1 y guile 447 18 y emacs.sql 355 1 y emacs.custom 37 1 y emacs.BBDB 2492 292 y emacs.tnt 3 1 y emacs 638 11 y gnu.org 371 3 y atlantis 6 1 y mail.spam 13 9 y mail.misc 4421 3485 y emacs.gnus 135 1 y Does that help at all?
