Got the dreaded zero return code from a post just now, was that an anomaly
or a harbinger?

My theory is that it’s to do with the spam-blocking email address additions
that are apparently randomly generated from a set list of additional
elements. A later test is somehow not prepared for some of the possible email
addresses thusly generated -- they do not somehow pass a subsequent “posting
privileges” test for a given user with X name at Y email address. The Y email
address part gets bombed.
So when it generates something like “=larry=pNOSPAM@mi.net”, a test somewhere
down the road says “Hey, that user doesn’t exist! An email address can’t have
an equal sign at the front of it...!”
That’s my best guess given certain behavior I have observed from posting
exclusively from the web interface.
