  Let me define step by step what I am doing now:
  1)invoke
    slrn
  2)Select "a"
  3)Enter alt.os.linux.debian
  4)The newsgroup is added to the group window!
  5)Scroll to the group, enter "s" for subscribe
    Wooo!
  6)Hit space bar
  7)Shazaam! I am subscribed with 13 thousand entries.
    Whoopie!
  Shut down slrn
  8)Invoke 
    /usr/local/bin/slrn --spool -n
  9)Watch upteen zillion f**in boogus entries and
    then slrn loads.
  10) **no** alt.os.linux.debian is visible. Feeling
     groochy now... 
  11)Select "a"
  12)Enter alt.os.linux.debian
  13)God darn it! I get the answer again that
     alt.os.linux.debian does not exist!
  So what is wrong here!
