Dear Maintainer,

I attempted to add gmane.org to my list of nntp accounts in icedove, which list
already contained nntp.aioe.org and news.mozilla.org. After adding. icedove
still listed only two news servers in the left-side pane: aioe.org and
gmane.org. The groups to which I had subscribed under news.mozilla.org were
listed under gmane.org (though they were not accessible there: icedove prompted
me asking if I wanted to subscribe to each group, and then failed silently
after I clicked "Yes".)
In the Account Settings window, gmane.org was listed twice, making a total of
three accounts, although only two accounts were visible in the left-hand pane
on the main window.

Currently I can't use icedove for news at all (thanks also to another bug,
which I will file later after getting more information, and the number of which
I'll attach to this bug in case it is relevant.)
