Description Arkadiusz Miskiewicz 2011-12-17 22:14:11 UTC 
Version:           unspecified
OS:                Linux

When nntp server returns:

"400 load at 17.02, try later"

then knode says:

"Internal error in server
The server news.gmane.org could not handle your request.
Please try again now, or later if the problem persists."

while this isn't any "internal error". It's normal error message which most likely should be displayed to user instead of hiding it under "internal error" message. 

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
connect to overloaded server that reports "400 load...." - news.gmane.org currently does exactly that

Actual Results:  
Error message that lies and explains nothing.

Expected Results:  
Better error message.

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years so I am closing this bug.
