Subject: Pine and permanent message

I have noticed that since I've been using 4.x, there is permanently a
message in the mail queue. This is causing all kinds of problems with
anything that relies on the presence of messages in the queue (mail flags,
procmail, etc.)

Why is Pine leaving a message there, and are there any plans to wring out
this bug?

OK, all of a sudden I'm getting list mail in duplicate. Is anyone else
getting this problem?

does pine ask you to reply to all recipients?  well mine does.
and others does too.  that means that in cases of email lists like Pine
Discussion forum.  the message is sent to you as to
[email-masked], but is from whoever person sent the message.
thus when you reply to all recipients, you send the messgae to the person
who sent the message and to the pine discussion forum so everyone gets the
message.  this is so that the person that actually sent the message
actually gets the message.  usually reply to all recipients involves
messages sent from email addresses that got a CC(carbon copy) from
someone else, and makes the From: variable equal who orgiinally sent the
message.  you get it?  probably not.  i sucked at explaining this.  anyone
else want to help.  i couldn't find much info about reply to all
recipients at the pine information center at university of washington.

Ah, I just noticed this. Most other mailing lists put the list address in
the Reply-to: line. I can see how this would cause duplicates.
