Ok, I removed the brackets and the request works. :-)

Hey, the tcpdump-thing was a good idea. When executing your snipped
(which worked), the requests go to 64.233.167.99, which is a google
server. If I click a message-id, the tcpdump records only packets with
destination "sea.gmane.org.nntp", so google never seems to be asked.
My config is as follows:
(setq gnus-refer-article-method
'(current
(nntp "newshost.uni-koblenz.de")
(nntp "news.gmane.org")
(nnweb "gmane"
(nnweb-type gmane))
(nnweb "google"
(nnweb-type google))))
That's the way I'd like it to work: First try to lookup the article in
the local agent cache, if that fails try the nntp-servers of my
university and gmane, and if that fails, too, try to get it from gmane
or google.
But as I said: When I press RET on this example message-id in this
thread, tcpdump records only packets with destination
"sea.gmane.org.nntp". As the current thread is in a gmane group, it
seems to correspond to the "current" refer method, I'd say. The
message-id corresponds to an article on
de.comp.hardware.laufwerke.festplatten, so gmane is the wrong partner
here.
But why doesn't it try to get it at the other alternatives?
Kind regards,
Tassilo
