Leafnode functions as an batch-jobbed a-synchronious newsreader with
a server-funtion.
So any changes will become only effective after the next fetchnews-session
and an file entry will be set in the directory "interesting-groups".

Sometimes, the insertion of the groupname does fail for unknown causes
(to me that is), so I touch the group-name-entry manually in the
"interesting-groups" directory.

But gnus also must reread the .newsrc.eld to access a new group.
