I always ignore myself.  And today I did L-Z!  Yay!

(K-M took a very long time, since the A-K people who I sent further
questions to had the audacity to actually respond, which meant that I
was doing A-K each day!  Fie!)

After `C-g'-ing, if you switch to the "*nntpd*" (note leading space)
buffer, what does things look like there?

Yeah!  Doing what I say you should do?!  You should have known better!

No, you were K-M, which was almost as bad.

Haven't checked the results of Lars suggestion yet but wanted to add
this: 

I have seen something very similar by pressing 'g' having "Reading
active file" seem to take too long. What I have been doing is a little
different but probably gets the same result.  I go into the server
buffer (^) and shut down the server where the read was hanging up with
(C)close.  Then hit (O) open and when it opens press 'g' and the read
will proceed quickly.

It turns out that Lars is sorting email by the first letter of the
name string, rather than the last name...  I'm thinking of changing my 
name during bug reports:

Wes Hardaker -> 000AAA Wes Hardaker

Hey -- look what I just discovered!  `C-u C-c C-s C-a' sorts in
reverse order!  Neat!

I'll bind C-c C-b to a function that sends a bugreport with each of
"AAA", "BBB", ..., "ZZZ" prepended to my name.  Let's see you worm out
of that one!  Ha!
