I'm using PINE 3.39 and I can't figure out how to make my personal name
appear in the index folder when I post a message to a newsgroup.  all it
says is "To: {whatever newsgroup}"  What can I do?

Pine thinks that there is no point in displaying to YOU the from
info of messages that YOU send, so for those it displays info
about who they are to.  The rest of the world sees those messages
as from Keiko (who has a signature three times as long as the
actual message sent).

So don't worry.  Pine is sending messages with the correct From info.

It only looks that way to you. Everyone else sees it as being from you.
