Subject: More bugs in pine 4.00

1. Pine sometimes splits References line in the middle of Message-ID!
   Example:

References: <[email-masked]>
 <[email-masked]> <Pine.LNX.3.96.980703113130.659A-100000@q
 rnik.knm.org.pl> <[email-masked]>
 <[email-masked]>
 <[email-masked]>
 <[email-masked]>
 <[email-masked]>
 <[email-masked]>
 <[email-masked]>

2. Pine makes a link from a simple word "www" or "wwww", which obviously
   can't be a web address.

3. The option enable-exit-via-lessthan-command seems to be ignored.

4. Pine no longer shows "to: name.of.a.newsgroup" instead of "My Name".
   It works only for emails.

   Anyway, this useful behavior is often confusing for beginners. I think
   it might be better documented? Or, as they generally don't read the
   documentation (asking on news:*.linux instead), maybe it could be a
   switchable option, off by default.

5. Subjects in a newsgroup seem to be sorted before MIME-unescaping
   (at least with OrderedSubj sort), putting =?ISO-8859-2?Q?Something?=
   far away from Something.

My version of Pine 4 does not make a link from "www" but it DID make
one from "wwww."  In fact, if you have enable-web-host-scan set,
words like

WWWServers Inc

will get a link.  The attached patch enforces "www." as well 
as "web." which was already there.

It also makes news:*.linux a link.  That's kind of dumb too, and I
don't currently understand why Pine considers characters like '*'
an acceptable RFC1738 "EXTRA" character.  I suppose I could 
read the rfc...  bleah.  :)
