We are running Pine 3.96 on an old Linux 1.2.13 box and Pine 4.44 on a new
FreeBSD box. Pine 3.96 treats bare (unqualified) addresses as local and
appends the value of either user-domain (if defined) or the name of the
host of which its running (if not), if the address is not in an
addressbook.  Pine 4.44 seems to choke on bare addresses, instead of
appending the user-domain or the name of the host on which its running,
if it can;t find the bare name in an address book it issues an error
message "to address: not in addressbook" and wont leave the to
line until the bare address is either qualified or removed.

Since sendmail appends the local domain to bare addresses,
we'd like to have pine either leave the address bare,
(or qualify it the way pine 3.96 did). what do we need
to add to pine.conf to make this a new default?

Thanks.

Fuzzy
