G'day,

I've been trying to post a message to lugnet.market.shopping and lugnet.loc.ca
using the web interface, but keep getting the error:

Notes:

Your message was not accepted.
Response from the news server:
441 Cannot accept binary posts.
Things you should double-check:
Have you completed the News Posting Setup procedure?
Have you received confirmation via e-mail that the server is ready to accept
messages from you?
Was your message properly addressed to a newsgroup on this server?


What's up with that??  I tried using the test groups with a test message to
see if it was some temporary server issue and things go fine there (although I
didn't try the exact same message).  There must be somthing bizarre in my
message that shows up in some kind of binaries code check or something.  Since
I can't post it, I can't show it to you..., I'll need to e-mail it to someone.

Thanx,
KDJ
