Bug Description

Everything is smooth until evolution is about to download the initial list
of groups from the server, then it just keeps "loading". All other parts
of evolution is still working when it loads....

I have verified that its not my isp or connection that gives me trouble,
news reading in Pan to same newsserver works perfectly.

Atleast it looks likes Evolution tries to connect or something in this case
to news.gmane.org

According to upstream not a bug. In fact you need to go in the Tools menu ->
Subscribe to Folders.
BTW the "Loading ..." is not clear, I keep it open for that.

Changing to Confirmed Wishlist since Upstream said this wasn't a bug, and then there is another upstream bug requesting a change which seems like a wishlist.
