A very rare error in the Western Hemisphere.

Is alt.windows98 (http://groups.google.com/group/alt.windows98) even carried
by Frontiernet newsserver?

I've never seen anything like this before. Does anyone know if this is a
problem with Outlook, the server, or what? Can anyone suggest a cure?

Thanks,
