Subject: problem posting NEWS

Hello,
    The installation of pine here refuses to post news.  The 
following diagnostic is (briefly) displayed:

   [Error posting message: 441 from: address not in Internet syntax]

I tried to get some debugging output with the -d option,
(-d 1,  -d 9,  -d9) but -d does not seem to work either.

Pine version: apparently 3.91  (from the global config file)
OS version  : solaris 2.5

I don't know who compiled it, or how, since Solaris is not
supported by the pine folks.  "xrn" posts news just fine, so
the problem is not evidently, in the news server.
