On poking around in my logs, it was due to the bad Date header. I gateway
this list into a local news group, and CNews is very hot on discarding
news articles with bad syntax.

Pete Hoffman has now subscribed <> and <-@[]> to the list, so these should
now be reaching you. The (4) series also had a typo in the Date header, so
the (5) series is about to go out (one with no From and one with From
<-@[]>). Please report if you fail to receives these, or if they arrive
with "interesting" manglements.
