The newsserver returned a wrong message-id, take a look at
following excerpt from your debug log:

> d:\dev\proj\sylpheed-claws\src\news.c:386:getting article 21525...
> [12:44:31] NNTP> ARTICLE 21525
> [12:44:31] NNTP< 220 21525 <[email protected]> article

Googling for this message-id reveals a message that doesn't belong
in that group:
http://groups.google.com/groups?as_umsgid=3E6F14EB.1070706%40ddo-org.com

Sylpheed cannot do anything but following what the NNTP server
gives as a reply. If the server returns a wrong message, Sylpheed
will display it (garbage in -> garbage out).

This is a correct reply from news.btx.dtag.de:

d:\dev\proj\sylpheed-claws\src\news.c:318:getting article 29638...
[13:23:46] NNTP> ARTICLE 29638
[13:23:46] NNTP< 220 29638 <[email protected]> article

Sorry, but I cannot fix your NNTP server.
