and that is correct. I misunderstood the search. I was
thinking the search or enter partial newsgroup name would
search the local newsgroups that have already been setup.

At least being wrong in this case was a good thing :)

Thank you...Works perfectly as I needed it.

Hmmm, I hit A to add a group, ^T to get the list, then ^W to search.
This
isn't enough?

Anyway, the list of newsgroups is stored in .newsrc if you're using a
UNIX
compatible OS.

Hi,

The local system administrators recently installed Pine version 4.05.
Unfortunately this version has an annoying bug.  When I answer yes to the
"Reply to All" prompt, it includes me in the list of people who receive
the message.  For instance, say Joe sends mail to Sam, Tom, and me about a
project we're working on.  I have something to say in return, so I want
the message to go to Joe, Sam, and Tom, but obviously I don't need to send
the message to myself.

Is there some way this can be fixed?  I've looked through the setup info,
and the only item that seemed relevant did nothing to fix the problem.
The local system administrators are no help - they just say that it's not
a bug, which is strange, because the earlier versions of Pine worked
correctly.

Thanks in advance,
James

When doing a reply to all, Pine ignores any address in the TO: which is
identical to yours as set in the config. If its not identical, Pine
assumes that it is someone different and includes it. For instance, your
config may have user-domain = cs.unr.edu . But I suspect they may be
sending to "[email-masked]" .

Under MainMenu-Setup-Config, make sure your user-domain is set correctly.

Check out the help screen under "alt-addresses" in the config also.
Setting that to "[email-masked], [email-masked]" and any other alternate
addresses may also help.
