I've added a warning to the auto-posting section of "FAQ maintenance aids" Web
page at http://www.qucis.queensu.ca/FAQs/FAQaid/#autopost that says:

Warning: Avoid posting more often than once per four days. Certain
anti-net-abuse measures might mistake your FAQ for net abuse if it repeats
in three days or less.
