A thought: it would be nice if Gnus did one of 2 things: either (1)
didn't try to open servers which were denied last time upon pressing
g in the group buffer, but tried nonetheless if asked specifically to
open a particular group, or (2) kept track of last time the server was
really denied, and if that time exceeded a certain amount (e.g. 2
hours or something), reset the "denied" flag. Otherwise, with Gnus
constantly running, I for example now and again have to go to the
server buffer and un-deny my news server (which is not too reliable,
unfortunately)...
