We have users who put 80 addresses in the To: field.  Two questions
related to this:

1.  One user complains of Pine dumping him back to the Unix prompt if
that user tries to edit the addressee list....  If he sends it, all is okay.
Any ideas???

2.  Another user at the end of a 1200 baud line in an overseas location is
the recipient of Email with 80 plus lines on the front of the message all
dedicated to the To: field. 
Is there any way to keep the addressees spread across the 70+ character line??
OR is there a way to set THAT user up so that the addressees
either do not show or they show at the end of the message??

Thanks,
John Daum

This is a bug that will be fixed in Pine 3.86 which will be out later 
this week.  It will be ftpable from ftp.cac.washington.edu in the /mail 
directory.

> either do not show or they show at the end of the message??
If you put the addresses in the Bcc: field rather than the To: field, 
they will not show up on the other end.  In Pine 3.07, set 
feature-level=old-growth in your .pinerc.  In Pine 3.85, set 
enable-full-headers in the feature-list.

Oops, disregard that last part.  Full-headers has to do with viewing 
messages rather than composing messages.  

When you are composing a message and the cursor is in the headers, the 
'^R' command will turn on Rich Headers.  Use the Bcc: field and none of 
the other recipients will recieve the full list of recipients.  

An even better way to send messages to alot of people is to use a mailing 
list manager...

Sorry about the mis-information.
