   Some people have thought that posting into a group I'm not subscribed to   
   might be the cuplrit.

   alt.home.repair is the culprit in this case.  I posted something into a   
   different set of three x-posted groups (two of which I'm not subscribed   
   to) with no problem.  Curiouser and curiouser.
