Not really network issue, but it does seem to be a growing issue. Basically they reject news with date 1900 (Good Thing), and also 00 (Bad Thing). Had a response from bCandid (aka Highwind). Worth watching your news logs and making test posts! Usual disclaimers apply.

I have no further update information for you at this time. As soon as the developers get back to me on this problem. I will let you know. *** update Information I received while typing this. The problem seems to be related to RFC 850, two-digit corruptions of ctime dates. There are no other known RFC compliancy issues at this time. As I understand these date formate are fairly old, and not in widespread use. I will you keep you posted. Sincerely, Chris Hyden Customer Care bCandid Corp
