Try emptying these files. As root, do:

: >/var/spool/news/interesting.groups/comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.rpg
: >/var/spool/news/interesting.groups/rec.games.roguelike.angband

That should make the problem disappear for the next fetchnews run, at the 
expense of missing one article per group from prior delaybody experiments 
and possibly skewing the expiry information for these groups a bit.

If you have NEVER even tried delaybody, please let me know.

Thanks.

Best regards
