[gnu.emacs.gnus] Checking for bogus newgroups...

For certain NNTP servers, I get a proper list of newsgroups, but
when I try to read a particular newsgroup, I get the message

``Checking for bogus newsgroups''

After this, it pops back to the newsgroups list, without
ever showing a subject index. Does anyone know why this
happens, or a possible fix?

Sometimes ask me if I want to remove some bogus newsgroups,
but that doesn't always happen -- it's not clear that it's
barfing because of bogus newsgroups, it looks more like
a protocol violation of some kind.
