Well, your explanation for why the post showed up three times only
showed up twice, so I guess that's an improvement.  :)

This is a big problem with Google Groups, which I use to post.  Too
often, I write my post and send it, and Google eventually comes back
with a message like "There was an error in posting, try again later",
only to find out that the post actually did make it out to Usenet and
I didn't really need to retry.  It doesn't appear that you're using
Google to post, but apparently whatever method you're using suffers
from the same glitch.
