leafnode was never designed for injections by means other than NNTP, so
this is giving you the blues. It's not intentional though.

Here's the full set of requirements for the article ("it") unless otherwise
stated, for current leafnode-1.9.x versions:

1. it must be successfully stat(2)ed for information
2. it must be a regular file (symlink to regular file will work)
3. it must be readable for the user news
4. it must have a Newsgroups: header
5. the upstream server must carry alt.activism.death-penalty
6. it must have a Message-ID: header
7. the message-ID must not be in use on the upstream server
8. the upstream server must reply with 340 to our POST command

Only by switching verbose mode off.
