Hello, awhile back when 3.93 first came out I was sent a message with
details on how to continue using 3.91 if I chose----like a dummy I didn't
save the message. Does anyone out there have those instructions????? I use
pine to post to usenet groups a lot and I just can't afford the 2-3
minutes that it takes 3.93 to validate the newgroup when I'm posting.
Maybe i'm doing something wrong, but at this point I want my 3.91 back.
Please help. thanks, Joseph.

P.S. If you wouldn't mind emailing me any responses that would ge great.

Joseph,
Have you tried setting the "news-post-without-validation" feature?

Joseph, the pine-info mailing list is an international list for Pine users
and administrators odf systems using Pine.  The folks on the list have no
idea how we have things configured here.  If you have problems with any
aspect of your BCPL account, please contact the BCPL Help Desk at
[email-masked], or call 887-3297.
 
If you really want to go back to Pine 3.91, you may do so by entering
"pine391" at the UNIX shell prompt instead of just "pine". However, try
this before you go back to the old version: 
 
o Start up pine (not pine391).
o At the main menu enter "SC" to go to Pine's configuration screen.
o Scroll down until "news-post-without-validation" is highlighted.
o Press "X" to enable that option.
o Press "E" to exit configuration mode.
o Press "Y" to save the modified configuration.

That should speed things up somewhat.
