I found the cause of this message.
Checking 'G p' on  'nnml:mail.ding' group  revealed the problem.

I had set up another group to catch gcc's for 'mail.ding' (making them
easier to find) nnml:ding-reply.

But when setting that parameter with 'G p' I left off the 'nnml' part,
as below: 

((to-address . " ding@gnus.org")
 (to-list . " ding@gnus.org")
 (visible . t)
 (gcc-self . "ding-reply"))       <== incorrect 
 (gcc-self . "nnml:ding-reply"))  <== correct


Apparently, without the preceeding 'nnml:' then gnus thinks it is an
attempt to setup an nntp group.
