It looks like a mozilla bug.
This seems to be as per the 1738
> nntp://www.vrspace.org/org.vrspace.dev/1
but Mozilla has this interaction:
-------
S: 200 vr NNTP Service Ready, posting permitted
C: MODE READER
S: 200 Posting Permitted
C: GROUP org.vrspace.dev/1
S: 411 no such newsgroup
-------
This is incompatible with nntp rfc GROUP command.
format should be GROUP <name>
Btw. IE 6.0 also has a bug.
for the same URL it has this interaction:
-------
S: 200 vr NNTP Service Ready, posting permitted
C: MODE READER
S: 200 Posting Permitted
C: ARTICLE <1>
S: 430 no such article
-------
This breaks nntp rfc ARTICLE Command
format should be
ARTICLE <message-id>
ARTICLE [number]
IE seems to be sending ARTICLE <number>
