I believe someone wanted to know what the 436 news posting response 
means: "news not posted - try again later". A bit like the 400 busy 
error but for the opposite direction.

The other common one is 501 which is a complaint about syntax - ignore 
it.

There ought to be a 666 - waste of 4.9p error as well :-(
