Subject: Pine questions (4.4X?)

From: Kenneth Crudup <[email-masked]>

- Is there any way, via keystrokes, to (R)eply to the original poster even
  if Reply-to: is set in the message (I don't want to set this in the
  config, as 99% of the time I want to use "Reply-To:"

- To have Pine remember the password used when you grab your remote_pinerc
  and automatically use that as the login to outgoing SMTP AUTH (currently,
  if the server spec differs at all, it won't reuse what it was given)

Thanks,

	-Kenny

Umm, you don't want to use the config option for it, but you still want
the functionality. I can only offer a poor work-around: Before replying
to the message, copy the sender's address into the clipboard, then when
you reply, paste it into the headers.

Use a password file. It will keep separate passwords for each server
definition.

Yeah, that's what I'd been doing before I RTFMed, and coming up empty,
tried here. Perhaps say, ^B (I think it's free) could be used to implement
this?

I don't use PC-Pine- where's this in the 4.4X *NIX distro?

I don't understand.

I'm using 4.21 on Solaris.

When I "r" Reply to a message with a
Reply-To: header, pine asks if I want to use the
Reply-To addresse instead of the Sender address
before asking me if I want to Reply to everyone
who saw the first message.

Answering "n" No to that question sends the reply
to only the singular sender, unless I then answer
"y" yes to the reply to all question.

Was that feature removed later?

You can choose to always use the Reply-To: header by selecting the
following under (M)ain (S)etup (C)onfig:

    [X]  reply-always-uses-reply-to

That's what the OP had an issue with. He wanted an exception keystroke.

The only option I saw in 4.4X was to change the behavior of Pine to either/or
send to all/send to one; didn't appear to prompt me.

You have to enable this during compilation. Read the Pine tech-notes:
<http://www.washington.edu/pine/tech-notes/installation.html#pine-compile>

Specifically, look at the definition for PASSFILE.

The compile-time definition should be done in pine/pine.h. search in
that file for the PASSFILE definition. It will be either commented out
or #undef'd. Edit that line.
