There are a few problems with your bug report[fn:1].

First, you don't describe the problem or the error at all (maybe you did
in some earlier post, but please don't assume that anybody is going to
go back and search the list in order to divine your meaning).  I, for
one, have no idea what problem and error report you are talking about,
partially because I'm not keeping up with the mailing list, partially
because I'm getting old and decrepit and my memory ain't what it used to
be.

But in addition, why do you think this is an org-mode problem? Surely, gnus is
the more likely culprit, no?

[fn:1] The orgmode site has some pointers to useful guides: Simon
Tatham's "How to Send Bug Reports Effectively" and Eric Raymond's
and Rick Moen's "How to Ask Questions the Smart Way". The former
is in the "How to contribute to Org" page; the latter is on the
front page.
