I noticed tha many people seem to both post a folowup message in a
newsgroup and send the same message by mail. How can I do that using Tin,
Pine and Pico? 

Regards,
Michiel

Using Tin:

When you post a followup, the default is mail to the newsgroup and reply 
to the person to.

Using Pine:

When posting a followup, if you say 'y' to *Post to Newsgroup*, the 
message gets posted to the newsgroup and does not get mailed. If you say 
'n' then the message is mailed and not posted. Of course, you can change 
this by actually editing the headers, so that the message gets posted and 
mailed!!

In Pine 3.92, you are given the option to post, reply by e-mail, or
both post and reply.  This is different from, and hopefully more clear
than, the old Pine 3.91 behavior.

Hi David,

	Questions:

1.) In PINE, the new version, can I as the user go directly to a message by
keying the number of the message? Old 3.91 version, this wasn't possible.

2.) Is PINE, able to run on a home computer not tied to any servers, for
the express purpose of downloading messages and replying OFFLINE and saving
the replies in a postpone-messages folder and uploading them to your server
and mailing the messages one at a time from the postpone-messages folder.

3.) Is there available to users of the PINE mail system, to download mail
folders from the Freenet site let's say and do the above with PINE or
another OFFLINE mail reader.

4.) Does PINE run under MS-DOS?
