OK.  Just tried.  Didn't see that behavior here.  Of course, I'm on cable 
modem, and a four line posts comes in pretty fast on a three Mbps line @ like 
six AM news server time.  Thus, I might not have had TIME to see the X, if I 
happened to blink when it was there or something.  <g>

I did notice he was posting from AOL.  Does it happen on other posts of his, 
or other AOL posters?  I'm not sure how absolutely compliant their 
proprietary news interface may or may not be.

If you delete and re-d/l overviews (which PAN inaccurately calls headers) for 
the group, does the behavior repeat itself?

I just thought of something else that's possible.  Here, when I set a post to 
d/l, it marks it with the "d/l job" arrow.  Is it possible the resources got 
mixed up on your installation, and the d/l job arrow is now the post 
unavailable X?  I don't even know if those are compiled in or grabbed from a 
dir somewhere, ready for theming or whatever, but perhaps those are somehow 
screwed up?
