I fought this one for ages; If you've either hand-edited your nntp.dat or it's
gotten corrupted, all groups below the error are lost.
Check for a blank at the start of all newsgroup lines especially.

news.demon.co.uk 960207 075612

        demon.announce
        demon.ip.support.atari
comp.sources.atari.st
        comp.sources.misc

this would get demon.announce, & demon.ip.support.atari, but would get nothing
from the other two groups... 

Phils 'add to NNTP' fix is very painful - been there, tried it, run out of
line-length & had multi-line NNTP's....  Yukk!
