OK, I just posted a message (reply, actually) in .loc.au and it turned • up in

this one please!  ;-)

You posted a crossposted reply to a crossposted message.

Hmmm ...  I gotta stop getting to sleep late at night - I think my eyes are
tricking me sometimes, or something is making text invisible.  I checked my
outbox, and sure enough, it was crossposted.  Doh - I have got to get my
dad, who's just into a new game, into a routine so I don't end up getting
muddled up so late at night and making mistakes like this earlier in the
night!

Apologies for any inconvenience.  As usual, you've solved the mystery, and I
would bet money (If I ever have any spare ...) on the odds that you'd be
correct 95% of the time!!  ;-)

Cheers ...

(...) You posted a crossposted reply to a crossposted message. (...) That's a bad feature -- a newsreader should never remove crossposted groups unless you tell it to or unless the 'Followup-To:' header contains a more restricted list. (...) (...) (24 years ago, 2-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
