What do you have set for "news-collections" in your .pinerc file?  Is 
your newsfeed on the local system or a remote NNTP server?

David,

Thanks for replying.  I am not sure how my newsfeed is setup here.  I 
believe its on the local machine(netcom.com).

I've found the easiest way to figure this out if you use tin is to save 
the article then use pico to look at it.  You'll see the path that the  
article took.  The FIRST computer listed is your news server.  If its 
the machine you login on to (like my secondary account) setup as per 
the local instructions.  If not (like this account) set it up as per 
the remote instructions.  Hope that helps you or someone.  :)

I'm not sure how netcom is configured either.  I know there are plenty of
proficient Pine users there though, just ask around...
