Sir,

	 I have found many times user send mails using other users e-mail
address. They do it bye using the  pine  message postpone feature, user
press the  key sequence "CTRL+o" and postpone their mail. Next time when
user  opens the pine, he is asked the following  question
	"Continue postponed composition (answering "No" won't erase it)?"
 	When  user  presses  "y" on the  keyboard the messages compose
window comes up and it shows  "from" and "to" address. You can actually
change the  "from"  mail id.
	I am  using Solaris 2.6 and pine veer 4.21. I have disabled pine
suspension in pine.conf.fixed in /usr/local/lib.  The pine.conf.fixed
contains: 
 
feature-list=no-enable-unix-pipe-cmd,no-enable-alternate-editor-cmd,no-enabl
e-suspend,no-enable-alternate-editor-implicitly,auto-move-read-msgs. The
ownerships of files are given below: 

	Could  please  guide me how do I disable postpone  message of  pine.
Please  revert back.

with warm regards
Sanjay C.

My recollection is that the "allow-changing-from" option has to be enabled in
the code at compile time, -and- the user also has to have it set in .pinerc
or equivalent in order to be able to edit "From:".  Assuming you disabled that
option at compile time, then if Pine is allowing users to set "From:" after a
postpone, it seems to me that must be a bug the developers need to take care of.
