    You don't give the exact messages given by NOS while in nntp trace 3
level (try a "record file" command before the session, to have a file of
the messages... "record stop" to stop it), but I guess it's the newsserver
who sends this "too old" error, haven read the Date: statement in your
headers...

    Newsservers can refuse postings for this or other causes, such as
illegal headers, bad format, too long lines... and also "too much quotes
compared to new text"!! It's true, it's an option of the INN server
programm...

>Why?  Is it parameterised somewhere?  Do I have any control over what's
>considered to be "too old"?  Any clues would be very much appreciated.

    If I'm right, you can try to edit your messages headers before posting
them... And say us if this works!       bye!
