Subject: News and cross-posting

I have noticed that pine does not deal with cross-posted messages.  In 
rn, if you read something that was cross-posted to both alt.hari.krishna 
and alt.new.wave.toenails, you only have to read it from one newsgroup.  
If it is cross-posted to 5 newsgroups, again the news reader should be 
able to update my .newsrc file such that I would not have to read the 
same article in more than one group.  Is this change made in 3.90?

Also, will the 3.90 pine newsreader do threads?

Bruce,

Neither of these will make it into Pine 3.90.  We will keep them on the 
list for future releases though.

Thanks for the suggestions!
