I hope it's only a Setup option that I'm overlooking.

Anyway, What the problem is, is that whenever I send a message, to a
Listserv for Ex. the (who the message is from line) has (who the message
was to), instead.  Which means, that the other people on the list can't
tell that the message is from me without reading it, which (to be honest)
is a hassle when on a high-volume list.  Is there a Setup command, that
I'm missing somewhere?

	Yes, you are missing something.....

	I believe you are assuming that since the message you have sent
to the list is also being sent to you and pine is displaying it as:
"To: XXXX" that everyone is seeing it in that manner.

	This is a topic that comes up frequently on this group.
It is a "feature" of pine that shows messages that *you* sent to *you*
as "To: XXXX" since you know you sent it.  

	It is a "presentation" thing only.  Meaning, the "From:" 
header is still there for everyone else to see.  You can still use
procmail (or whatever) to filter on that header.

	Regards,
