Hello Duncan
Thanks for replying. The Pan version is 0.14.2. You are correct in saying that 
the posts I am referring to are not over 200 lines, even if I have been 
quoting. If the post is mostly quoted, Pan properly indicates that, but the 
problem happens whether I am quoting or not, with one liners or 100 lines.
It is really baffling me. I have uninstalled Pan and re-installed it, but same 
problem. I am thinking I will experiment with KNode to see if that works 
(which means that it is a difficulty I am having with Pan itself) or may mean 
that it is a problem I am having with the server (although have confirmed 
with my ISP that those are the correct settings) or my firewall (although I 
can't see why that would block outgoing posts when it doesn't in my email 
system). Very puzzling ... so if anyone wants to theorise - please be my 
guest.

Cheers
Andy
