observed on Win XP
Steps to reproduce:
- go Edit| Mail/News account settings;
- click to set up a new account;
- chose a news account;
- for the server name make a typo, for example: type new.mcom.com and click Next;
- now go back to the previous screen and correct the server name to news.mcom.com;
//note : the server name stays as "new.mcom.com" . In the right pane after you
finish the setup it'll be showing up as "news.mcom.com" ( correct) but when you
select the server to subscribe to it the window title would still saying
"new.mcom.com" and i actually not able to subscribe now ( i don't whether the
server news.mcom.com is down or it is trying to subscribe to new.....

this does not happen with other accounts on WinXP and not a problem with a
newsgroup account on Win2k

Worksforme and also is working for Marina.

Note: Bug# 98381 asks that the Subscribe dialog be changed to be more precise
with Server Names and Account Names.
