Sorry 'bout that.  At best I can claim a stressful week coupled with a
long reply time.  At worst, I "have no excuses."

BTW, the generation of the "From:" field for follow-ups produces bogons.
Specifically, if you post via inews, you'll get "From: dieter@titan.nmt.edu",
which inews looks at and says, "Aha!  He's got a partial path, so we'll
just tack on the local path, producing 'Path: nmtsun!dieter@titan.nmt.edu."

This is considered poor form by some folk.  My local fix was to simply
remove the code that appended the "@titan.nmt.edu" from reply.el.  You
might consider making this customizable (other than by source hacking).
