I assume you are at the LYNXCFG:/ page.
Does output changed after reloading (LYNXCFG://reload/)?

Not recognized options are ignored, NTTPSERVER in your case (*).

In the (**) case NNTPSERVER line should be seen at LYNXCFG:/ page,
and will be exported into environment (try '!' to open shell and run
'set' command).

If you see NNTPSERVER at LYNXCFG:/ page *but* it is not exported into
environment, please let us note. Probably Tom or others will look into.
Don't forget to note what platform are you using.
