That's when nnrpd (reading mode) is in use.

That's when innd (transit mode) is in use.

Here, innd (transit mode) is answering.
Send "MODE READER" and you'll see a 200 response with "InterNetNews NNRP 
server" (note the "NNRP" indication).

Now that "MODE READER" has been sent, you will not be seeing again that 
error code.

In your incoming.conf configuration file, I believe you have listed the 
other machine from which you telnet.  When listed, innd (transit mode) 
responds and you'll need a "MODE READER" command to switch to nnrpd 
(reading mode).  When not listed, nnrpd is directly spawned by innd.

I hope my explanations are clear enough.
I think your readers.conf file is fine and will work.
