I recently tried to upload my FAQ to the server. However when I did so,
all 5 parts bounced with the following message.

-------
The message below was sent by you to the news.answers FAQ server. It
cannot be processed for the following reason:

attempt to change a posting's archive name to a name
that's already in use.

Please fix the problem and submit your request again.
-------

Anyone give me an idea? Is the FAQ server case sensitive?

While I'm on about the FAQ server, could someone fix it's bounces? When a
post is successful you get a short e-mail stating the success. However if
it fails, you get the error message + your entire FAQ part back again? Is
sending back the entire FAQ really necessary?

Paul's old keyboard gave it's life in performance of it's duty. But otherwise no computers were harmed during the creation of this e-mail, however several billion electrons were abused to ensure its safe delivery.
