So this works, in the sense that it stops me waiting forever... However,
it seems (early days yet) that when it fails to open the connection to
an NNTP server, it stops retrieving news and I have to hit 'g' again to
get the counts etc. updated for other servers.  But much better than
waiting forever.

Thank you,
