You're right to suspect the POST script.  No part of sn exits with
255, I might suspect a shell problem, maybe related to an
environment variable.

I'd run the POST script manually, maybe with -vx, to trace the
problem.  The script is really overkill; you can roll your own if
you don't need cancel/control messages.
