Subject: Local address pops to To-field

Hello,

we use pine version 3.93
It has very annoying feature:

when you send mail outside our domain
it always adds our own domain address
to receiver's field.
For example when you want to send message to
[email-masked] and type msiiskon@
to To-field it makes the address like
[email-masked] and i have to edit the
address backwards to correct it.

Can somebody please help me.
I haven't found anything concerning this
from Config Setup

Mika

	Question:  How do your expect pine to guess that user msiiskon
is at hornet.pspt.fi?  Why not at mit.edu or sgi.com?  Just typing
msiiskon@ or msiiskon is considered an underqualified address.  It is
quite standard proceedure to append the local domain to that type
of address.

	Or, maybe I'm not understanding your question...

	Regards,

		Ed

No Ed you didn't but it may be because of my bad english ;-))

What i am trying to say is that i don't have any chance to
write the rest of the address (for example hornet.pspt.fi)
because when i have typed msiiskon@ pine makes the rest of
the address automatically (that is [email-masked]).

After that it jumps to Cc-field and writes @-mark there and
the cursor blinks in Cc-field too.

Now if i want to correct this i have to delete @-mark from
Cc-field, then go to To-field and edit the rest of the address
by deleting khro.fi and retyping hornet.pspt.fi

	Your English is just fine.  I think it is you just
didn't fully define the problem

> by deleting khro.fi and retyping hornet.pspt.fi

	I *fully* understand now!

	OK, this appears not to be a pine problem.  You should
*not* be getting the @ sign in any of the fields without your
typing it yourself.  I suspect there is something amiss with
your "stty" settings or your TERM settings.

	Can you tell us more about your environment?  Like the
platform you are running on, etc?

	I'm not an expert in stty settings and the like...but
you may want to type "stty -a" at your shell prompt and post
it to the group.  Someone may see something.  I've had a problem
in the past where typing a @ character acted as a "kill".

	Anyway, I don't believe pine is to blame...otherwise
not many people would be using it.  :-)

	Ed

I once saw this with someone's terminal software/setting here: the @ key
first moves forward one word and then @ appears, as if you had pressed
^-space @. That gives exactly the symptoms you are seeing.  Try pressing
@ in the body of your message (inside some text.)
