I'd be inetrested to know the answer and I suspect that it's not simple.

Last week I had 1.9.24 decline to put up 3 posts with the same message.
However my art ID is made up by slrn and of the format

<slrn-generated-rand-string><local-user-name>@<my-own-fqdn>

I do own my own domain so no one else should be using it, even so the rest
should make the ID as near unique as is practical so what was LN
complaining about?

The posts were not sent, but neither did they end up in failed.postings or
anywhere else.  They were just expunged.
