The article I'm following up was originally posted to ca.news, but
this may be a wider problem so I'm crossposting to news.admin and
removing the distribution restriction.

AHA! I'll bet that's the reason so many people didn't get the rmgroups!
OK you news admins, check your sys files! Make sure everyone in
North America gets "na", everyone in the USA gets "usa", and any
local distributions (or distributions for your country and continent,
for that matter) are right.
