Try using /ircnet instead of network.

The networks are a made up of servers and the servers are made up of
channels, so, 

# remove them all; some I never use, others I want to reconfigure from
  scratch

/ircnet remove Undernet
/ircnet remove DALnet
/ircnet remove EFNet

# Add the ones I want to use, use quotes around multiple word names.
/ircnet ADD -nick orchid -user bzgirl -realname aec -autosendcmd "/^msg
nickserv ident PASSWORD;wait -freenode 2000" freenode

# next add a server to each of the networks
/server add -auto -ircnet freenode irc.freenode.net 6667

# verify it exists
/server list 

# remove any extras using tab completion
/server remove irc.<tab> 

# next add some channels 
/channel add -auto #bzflag freenode
/channel add -auto #emacs freenode
