Nope, it's even very likely. ;-)  The receiver always synchronizes
on the start bit.  If the following bits run out of sync, this might
remain unnoticed if indicentally the next (out of sync) bit is
identical to what it ought to be if it were in sync.

Strange, if it wasn't the x-original-newsgroups header, i have no idea
where else it gets that idea.  Also, i don't know why it
differentiates between both at all, the message format is basically
identical.
