> Hi. When setting up a new feed group with nnatom in Gnus, there is a little 
> oddity: If I pass in the URL to the feed without the protocol specifier, 
> i.e., without the "https://"; it works fine. But if I try to include the 
> protocol specifier, then I get a message: "Couldn’t request list: nil", and 
> the group is not added. It doesn't trigger the debugger, even though 
> "debug-on-error" is set t.

> So, I frequently have to delete the "https://"; part when I am copying and 
> pasting from some link for an atom feed. This is a bother.

> I don't know if this can be reproduced without Gnus already being setup, but

> 
> (1) bring up Gnus group buffer
> (2) run gnus-group-browse-foreign-server (B)
> (3) nnatom <RET>
> (4) https://sachachua.com/blog/category/emacs/feed/atom/ <RET>
