Outlook Express could not post your message.

Subject, Account:  , Server: 'NNTPSRV', Protocol: NNTP, Server Response: '441 (620) Article Rejected -- Insertion into group (null) of article (null) failed.', Port: 119, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 441, Error Number: 0x800CCCA9



CAUSE
This issue can occur if the NNTP administrator attempted to restrict permissions for an NNTP newsgroup by granting Full control folder and file security permissions for the newsgroup folder, but the did not grant the System group permissions to the newsgroup file folder.



RESOLUTION
When you grant the specified user rights to the newsgroup file folder, the System group is required to have explicit access as well. For example, if the user that is specified is, the minimum explicit permissions on the folder should be:
