   It happens here once in a while... not that often.  It happens to my bbbs   
   mailer when it cannot complete the transfer.  Typically it is because of some   
   problem with the node bbbs is trying to dial - it could be any one of the   
   following:   
      
   #The node bbbs is trying to dial has it's own problems and needs to   
   be reset by the sysop... [often]   
   #There was some typo in external.bbb's remap section [ok, I'm not perfect ]   
      
   Hope this helps :)   
      
   Take care,   
   Janis
