one bad article ruins the fetch for that server

Bug: say one has two postings queued for a certain server.  If the
first one fails, e.g.  441 No valid newsgroups in "alt.cons....
Then not only will the second article not be tried, but the fetch for
that server won't be tried.

Or maybe the server (news.cis.dfn.de) hung up at that point.

The user isn't notified that something bad happened too.
