Hi .. I have not read all the logs ... 
What about this commands :

 su - news  -c "/usr/news/bin/inncheck -perms"  2> /dev/null
  (don't beleave  all the lies ... 
    /usr/news/bin/rnews:0: mode 4550, should be 2555
    /usr/news/bin/inndstart:0: in group news, should be bin
    /usr/news/bin/inndstart:0: mode 4755, should be 555
    /usr/news/bin/makegroup:0: missing
    /usr/news/bin/updatemods:0: missing )

 su - news -c "/usr/news/bin/inncheck -v -a -pedantic" 2> /dev/null
 su - news -c "/usr/news/bin/innstat | less"

is the output almost ok ?

Did You ever started inn  as root ... so you are stoned! This usualy screws
up the approbiated access rights.

And last but not least : is your newsserver indeet accepting articles from
the host you try to post? in other words : is your site/host/server counted
in 
        nnrp.access
        hosts.nntp
        
and is the password set right ? (usualy empty password)
        passwd.nntp
