Subject: name expansion

I ran into a problem the other day with a professor who wanted to create a
mailing list in pine for her nursing class. The problem was that with the
name expansion sent off to sendmail, it blew sendmail's atom limit or
something and currently the mail is still sitting in the queue. 

I had hacked elm at one point to not expand local addresses. Is this 
something easily done in pine or not recommended or what?

I'm basically saying, if I send to dave (@localaddress)
I'd like it to be sent to dave 
       not                David A. Rasmussen <[email-masked]>

Dave,

There are much better ways to work around the sendmail buffering bug than
the hack to not expand local addresses.  Pine 3.88 solves this by breaking
the list into pieces that are more palatable to sendmail.  It should be
available in a few days. 

Thanks for the report!
