It should be posted now..... the problem was that your posting had a
blank references line, and that caused the system to choke. I deleted
the blank References: header line, and the news system accepted the
posting just fine.
Saying that the problem was "a blank references line" is a bit vague;
in fact, the problem was not that the References: line had no message
IDs in it, but rather that the space after the colon was missing. The
software would have had no trouble with "References: ".
