I'm sorry, I just checked and all the subscriptions are stored in
~/.evolution/mail/nntp/.ev-summary binary file, with names of all known
groups on the server. I've no idea which flag means subscribed and which
not, maybe making a copy of that file (because deleting means losing all
subscribed folders) and garbling name of the offending folder might help
a bit. A gross workaround. When something goes wrong put back backuped
file.

Feel free to open an enhancement request in http://bugzilla.gnome.org to
be able to manage subscriptions on nntp in offline. Should be doable for
accounts which have downloaded folder list.

(Same applies for the below things you mentioned and I erased here.)
