Further inspection of the problem has led to this:
 
telnet> o rpi.edu 119
Trying 128.113.1.5 ...
Connected to rpi.
Escape character is '^]'.
200 rpi NNTP server version 1.5 (26 Feb 88) ready at Wed Feb 22 10:53:45 1989 (posting ok).

202 Kinky, kinky.  I don't support such perversions.
quit
205 rpi closing connection.  Goodbye.

Now, since Masanobu says GNUS doesn't do anything to newsgroup name,
and the NNTP server doesn't do anything to the name it receives, I
suspect that it is something wrong in inews.  People using Pnews from
rn don't have any trouble posting to the group.  So now, and inews
people out there who can account for this?
 
Thanks.

Dave
