Have you turned on debugging to watch exactly what fetchnews is doing?  It
should be doing a GROUP command only for those groups listed in
interesting.groups.

It looks to me like you are just seeing articles that are cross posted to
at least two different groups: one you read and one you don't.  It's not
like the message was fetched multiple times or takes up additional storage
(well, ok, inode for a new directory and possibly extending the directory
to support the directory entries, but that is probably negligible).

Can you find a counter example of an article that was fetched that simply
was not cross posted to any group that you read?
