Subject: Putting Admin in AdressBook?

I am having trouble getting my name to appear in users address books so 
that they may mail me with problems.  

What are the exact tokens for this in pine.conf, and when I do get it 
working, will it appear in my address book as well being the admin?

I have a look-a-like problem (on SunOS.4.1.1). Introducing 'bugs-fullname'
and 'bugs-address' in pine.conf and/or pine.conf.fixed has no effect.

You can't put an address in everyone's address book in 3.91.  The bugs-*
entries in the pine.conf file only apply to the Bug Report command.  You
used to be able to put them in the address book, but we removed that
feature because lots and lots of people had our address in their address
books.  We over-reacted.  We should have just removed the default.  In
3.92 there will be a new variable which can be set in the pine.conf file
and will cause some specified addrbook entries to be written into all
personal address books which are writable and don't already have a
matching nickname.
