Some more info would be nice.

The big question, is the failing connect via SSL or normal NNTP?  Also, 
what port do you connect on and is it the normal one for that security 
mode (119 for normal nntp, 563 for SSL/TLS)?  If it's not too private, 
which provider?  And if SSL, did you try the always accept checkbox or 
not?

Also, you mentioned headers.  I don't suppose you tried refreshing the 
group list or possibly posting, did you?  IOW, was it /just/ getting 
headers, or was it any connection to that server?

And do you have just one server or more than one, and if more than one, 
was it affecting them all, or just the one?  Only certain groups, or 
all?  I don't suppose you tried a completely new group that you hadn't 
used before, did you?  (IOW, was it possibly local group-history related?)

Anything else you can think of that might help tracing the problem...
