Subject: 'cannot write to addbook.lu...' problem

With the latest version of Pine, I'm having trouble getting the 'cannot write
to addbook.lu... using temporary file...' message to go away, with respect to
global address books.  I've rebuilt the indexes as root with no effect.  The
old version (3.96) didn't have this problem.  Any suggestions?

Did you rebuild it as root using the new version of pine?

is there any reason that the # (compose with role) command is not enabled
in the index window?

also, if you configure a role that gets settings from another role it
doesn't seem to work right for the # command (doesn't set the from line
for example).  i haven't tested all other uses of the role, so it may be
more widespread than that.

another role concept that might be nice is to set the default domain to
tack onto addresses in the to/cc/bcc fields.  when i'm sending mail from
[email-masked], i'd like to be able to just type bar and get [email-masked].

but so far, people are loving the role additions.

Check out the user-domain field in the config stuff.  It's third from the
top I think.
