Not a problem with NIN after all, it was a rogue character in subject
- an MS hyphen. Care needs to be taken when copying and pasting from
Word to Agent. Text body doesn't seem to be a problem, just the
subject line. Agent is very fussy in that regard!

Just FYI, it's not only copy/paste from Word that can cause
problems. I discovered that sometimes I need to re-type the
entire Subject: field in order to get a post through. And
since this has always been a reply in an existing thread
it's not due to copy/paste in the Subject: field. Doesn't
happen often, but it *has* happened half-a-dozen times in
the past 6 months or so. I suspect a non-ASCII "invisible"
character causes the problem, but since I have a workaround
I'm not interested in spending time digging into it.
