Fixing the 441 Posting Failed Header Error

When using UsenetServer and you see a 441 error, the likely cause is a From header that doesn't meet Internet formatting standards.

What's Wrong

Usenet protocols expect a properly formatted email-like structure in the From field.

How to Resolve

  1. Open Identity Settings in Your Newsreader
    Navigate to your identity or posting configuration.

  2. Fix the Email Format
    Change the From header to something like [email protected].

  3. Eliminate Invalid Characters
    Make sure no symbols or partial addresses are included.

  4. Test by Posting Again
    Try your post to confirm the change worked.
