Subject: full-name substitution on To: header

Pine behaves differently on two of our systems. 

On an Ultrix system running pine 3.88, it automatically converts
a naked address to a full alias and address.  That is, if I type
"black" on the To: line, it is automatically converted to
"Matthew Black <[email-masked]>".

On an SGI IRIX 5.2 system running pine 3.90 and the same
global pine configuration file .pinerc, it doesn't perform the
automatic conversion of a naked address.  

Can anyone offer advice why these systems behave differently?

The behave differently because much has changed between 3.88 and 3.90.

In fact, the way the .pinerc defines and handles the situation that
you describe has changed from 3.90 to 3.91.

Suggest you upgrade all of your systems to 3.91 and then check out the
options "Use-Only-Domain-Name" and "quell-user-lookup-in-passwd-file".
