When you say "intermittent," do you mean that it happens sometimes but

No.  When I first emailed you I couldn't define the problem, so
it seemed intermittent.  Once I figured out the cause (the
leading spaces) it became repeatable.


What do you mean by "leading spaces"?  Do you mean lines that begin with
space characters (i.e., ASCII #32) or do you mean whole blank lines?

The former.


About how many spaces are you putting in?

A single space will cause the problem.  More than one have
the same effect.


Approximately what date & time did you last see this?  The system logs might
tell me something.

You can look for things circa this test message thread:
http://news.lugnet.com/off-topic/test/?n=2551
That's when I was first trying to isolate the problem.
I had no luck.  (In review, there were no leading spaces
in the message I was trying to post at that time.  I
can email you the text file for the message for you to
look at.)

More recently, look about before this message got posted:
http://news.lugnet.com/market/auction/?n=7487
This was the first time I had a message that wouldn't
post that I eventually got to post successfully.  It
was fixed by removing the leading spaces I had in
the numbered list.

There's been other times, but since I never got the messages
to post, I don't know how to find out when they were.

Thanx,
KDJ
