My NSP does not carry alt.comp.lang.pascal or alt.comp.os.linux.

If I were to refresh my groups list, my NSP would provide me w/ a list 
of the groups which it carries; but your situation is different.

You via Tb 'correspond' w/ Leafnode, not a regular NSP.  Your Leafnode 
gets its feeds from some feed.

The leafnode docs talk about problems between fetchnews (and OE) but not 
specifically about Tb.  This fetchnews item is of some interest:

// 6. I have unsubscribed from a newsgroup, but fetchnews still pulls 
articles for
    that group.

    Your news reader talks to leafnode via the NNTP protocol. This protocol
    provides no means for Leafnode to determine which newsgroups you are
    actually subscribe. Therefore, Leafnode assumes that a newsgroup 
that is not
    read for a certain time (which can be configured with the timeout_long
    parameter) is unsubscribed and will only stop retrieving articles in it
    after this time.

    If you are impatient and want to stop retrieving articles from that 
group
    immediately, delete the corresponding file in the /var/spool/news/
    interesting.groups/ directory. The articles that are already in your 
spool
    are still subject to the regular texpire schedule, however.
