I put the following into my .emacs file.

;;; Read News from Gnuemacs
(global-set-key "\C-x!" 'gnus)
(setq gnus-nntp-service nil)
(setq gnus-nntp-server "shelby")
(autoload 'gnus "gnus" "Read network news." t)
(autoload 'gnus-post-news "gnus" "Post a news" t)
(autoload 'nntp "nntp" "NNTP service" t)


I byte-compiled (under GNUemacs) all the *.el files. Then I run the gnus.
Afer a while, I got the following 

        su.news:12
su.issues.china:435
and lots of other news group:

on the screen.
When I hit the "space bar", "checking bogus newsgrup...." appears on a   
minibuffer, and then "...done". When I hit the space bar again, the same thing 
happen to me. 

It seems to me, nntp only copied the names of newgroups, but it did not copied
the actual articles in a newsgroup.

Anyone can give me some hints on this?
