News.individual.net not sending my posts. They say, "line 3 too long".
I can't see anything wrong.

Weird. This post is OK but the others still aren't going.
Sorry for the OT.

What happened when you tested in alt.test?

The test message appeared in alt.test. I could also send regular
e-mail - just couldn't send posts to newsgroups.
As you can see, I can now send to newsgroups but those particular posts
never did go through - I deleted them.
Weird.

alt.test is a newsgroup.

What can happen sometimes if you reply to a deeply nested post is that
the References header line gets too long.

Discussed elsewhere, the conclusion was that this is not a NIN
problem; rather, it is a newsreader problem. OE?

Quite probably OE, I suspect, in spite of what was claimed. I deleted
the "offenders", so everything's fine at the moment. Throws up hands.
