Subject: Help needed to limit scope of postings

I have read in various FAQ's that it is possible to post to a limited 
geographic area.  I just posted to misc.wanted, and I was hoping that 
PINE would allow me to limit my posting to my local area, but it didn't.  
Did I miss a switch somewhere?  I'd really appreciate some help as I do 
not want to pollute everyone's newgroup lists with worthless messages.

Thanks from a newbie,

Mark

You need an "Distribution:" header, which you can create in the 
customized-header and then invoke it while composing a post using
^R (for Rich headers) and adding values to it like
Distribution: USA
Distribution: temple

Distribution: world is the default.
