It looks like your news server doesn't respond to the 'mode reader'  
command.  Try changing 'readermode=True' to 'readermode=False' in the  
nntplib.NNTP() call of cron/gate_news.

(If that makes this error go away, I would expect you would also need  
to change it in Mailman/Queue/NewsRunner.py.)
