I managed to fix this problem by setting the user-domain in the Setup
Configuration.  I think that whereas Ver 3.91 allowed me to get away with not
having a correctly set user-domain, version 3.93 doesn't! 

Does anyone have any comments on this?

dear tim
	sure, go to the config area thru the setup from the main menu(i am
assuming you know how to do that!!) and in the second field enter the
complete domain name that you would like your mail header to contain that
is i suppose in your case would be fcrd.gov.uk  .this is to ensure that
replies to your mail can be sent in the reply mode.what happens is that
pine picks up the domain name from your /etc/sendmail.cf file  and
attaches it to your name and sets this as the header on your outgoing
mail.in case your domain name is incomplete then reply to mails that you
send may not reach you in the reply mode. hence this entry. once entered
pine does not look up the sendmail file(i think) but for the user sake it
sends out his correct email address in the "from" entry on the outgoing
mail.
	this should fix up the problem for you.incase you wish to set it
up for all your users then create a global pine.conf file and put this
entry there.

Sawasdee (hello in Thai),

I face this problem too. I don't know the real reason! but I can correct
it for myself by use S-SETUP command and change config in the second line
"user-domain" to mydomain. It can correct this problem.

But this method don't fix the problem of every user!!
