Michaela,
When someone complain about this, could you enter in the channel, type /mode #channel +b (and this will show you provably in Status window the current ban list) and then do a /whois banned-nicknamed and past both information here? I think it would be helpful if we together double check if there isn't really a match between the user host and the current channel ban list.

This sounds really weird. FWIW, I operate ngircd for a small network
of about 40 users without any of these problems.

* Did you check whether this is related to Anope?
* If a client is banned, will a second try succeed? Does altering the
nick or user name change anything?
