| 211 59666 3 63244 infko.general

According to the RFC this looks plausible to me.

,----[ RFC977 3.2.1.  GROUP ]
| 3.2.2.  Responses
| 
|    211 n f l s group selected
|            (n = estimated number of articles in group,
|            f = first article number in the group,
|            l = last article number in the group,
|            s = name of the group.)
|    411 no such news group
