It is not your mistake, it is the newsserver (Proxy) you try to post to, it is broken. Sending plain text like "console - edge ..." in the middle of the dialogue is not allowed afaik. Quoting RFC 977, the respective standard: | 2.4. Responses | | Responses are of two kinds, textual and status. | | 2.4.1. Text Responses | | Text is sent only after a numeric status response line has been sent | that indicates that text will follow. | [...] | 2.4.2. Status Responses | [...] | Status response lines begin with a 3 digit numeric code which is | sufficient to distinguish all responses. | ----------------------------------------- cu andreas ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This message has been sent to you because you are subcribed to the mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from this lists, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing "unsubscribe newsx <your_email_address>" in the message body.
