As a followup to my own posting, I might add that this machine is also
addresable as menger.stevens-tech.edu, and if I put in pine.conf:
user-domain=menger.stevens-tech.edu
I get correct resolving of local usernames.  This leads me to believe
that there is a problem with the length of the field, perhaps.  Can
someone elaborate?

I'm trying to set up Pine 3.90 on SunOS 4.1.3 machine with NIS and
DNS.  The machine-name is "menger", and is in the "eecs" subdomain of
"stevens-tech.edu".
The default pine.conf has "user-domain=menger.eecs.stevens-tech.edu", 
but when composing mail to a local user, the address comes up as
[email-masked], instead of
[email-masked]

I've been trying different settings to get it to work, but I can't
seem to get it to put the correct hostname in the field.
Can someone help?  I'd appreciate personal mail - I'll post a summary
of useful responses.
Thanks,
-sahir
