Comes here Mr. mikeh with this opinion in the "comp.mail.pine" group in this
article on Wed, 15 Feb 1995 16:19:58 GMT:

 + I'm using pine3.91 on my linux box and connect with SLIP to my internet 
 + account. I'm also using pop. I keep getting messages from my system 
 + administrator about my mail messages going to him. he said if this 
 + problem isn't rresolved in 48 hours I'll not be able to use pine.
 + My address is [email-masked] and for some reason replies go to 
 + [email-masked]. How can I change this to [email-masked]. The 
 + [email-masked] address appears when I reply to a newsgroup posting from 
 + pine.

Hmmmm...looks like your From: is set to [email-masked]

Compose a message, postpone it. Go to the postpone folder and view this
message, check the From: header. If it says root....then you may have to
rebuild Pine again but this time with the ALLOW_EDIT_FROM option enabled.

	I'm not sure if this problem appeared anywhere else, but I know that
the non-PMDF version of Pine-VMS 3.89, when used with a PMDF-equipped
machine and no tcp/ip gets really confused about From: lines, takes the
second word of the "personal name" variable, and puts it in as the userid
for the from line.  Solution?  Change "personal name" to your userid. 
Problem solved. :)  Don't know if this is related to the UNIX problem,
though.
