1) On line 4961-2 and 4979 of gnus.el you have (if (string-match "\\." (system-name)) (setq gnus-your-domain (substring (system-name) (match-end 0)))) (string-match "\\." (system-name))) ;Full internet name. I have found that deleting the first two lines and changing the third to (string-match domain (system-name))) ;Full internet name. works better. The reason being that our host is a sun running sun O.S. 4.0. Well, in case you haven't heard, 4.0 is cursed. Our hostname is therefore sun.soe when you are on the host but off the host, the name is sun.soe.clarkson.edu. 2) It would be nice if an FCC: were put into the post-news header when you are writting it, as in mail. This way it is possible to not save something that you write. 3) If the user uses mh-rmail instead of rmail then it would be useful if mh-smail was used instead for mailing and replying and posting etc. Michael DeCorte // (315)265-2439 // P.O.

The reason being that our host is a sun running sun O.S. 4.0. Well, in case you haven't heard, 4.0 is cursed. Our hostname is therefore sun.soe when you are on the host but off the host, the name is sun.soe.clarkson.edu. Next version of GNUS will generate domain name in the following order: (1) DOMAINNAME environment variable (2) gnus-your-domain lisp variable (3) system-name lisp function if the return value contains "." In this case, you can use (1) or (2) to define your correct domain. 2) It would be nice if an FCC: were put into the post-news header when you are writting it, as in mail. This way it is possible to not save something that you write. It is possible to process such fields in gnus-Inews-article-hook. I'm not sure it can be included in the next version because I'm busy now. 3) If the user uses mh-rmail instead of rmail then it would be useful if mh-smail was used instead for mailing and replying and posting etc. I'm RMAIL user. I don't know much about mh-e. If you send me mh-e supports, I will include it. Masanobu UMEDA umerin@flab.Fujitsu.JUNET umerin%flab.Fujitsu.JUNET@uunet.uu.NET
