(No need to obfuscate the MID if you print it in clear text later. :-))

I don't see any problems with fetching this MID here, but I use wget
to fetch the URL:

(setq
 ;; for testing:
 gnus-refer-article-method
 '((nnweb "google" (nnweb-type google)))
 ;; Use wget instead of url.el (for nnweb-type google), seems to work more
 ;; reliable.
 mm-url-use-external t
 mm-url-program 'wget)

Independent to your problem, I improved `nnweb-google-wash-article' in
current CVS for the case that the article is not present on Google.
Please retry after updating from CVS.  Maybe with and without
`mm-url-use-external' and `mm-url-program'.

BTW, I'm not sure how indicate "not found" in `nnweb-google-wash-article':

	;; FIXME: Don't know how to indicate "not found".
	;; Should this function throw an error?  --rsteib

Anyone?

Maybe you can edebug `nnweb-google-wash-article'.  The fetched HTML
should be in the buffer " *nntpd*" while this function is called.

Bye, Reiner.
