Hi,

I've been reading newsgroups with Netscape 4.x under Linux for a couple
of years now, and every now and then NS gets into this crazy mode where
it thinks that the "Reply" button should send an email instead of
posting my response to the newsgroup I'm reading at the time.

Unless I remember to check, the article goes to an individual via email
instead of to the newsgroup.  I find this quite maddening, but I can't
seem to find out why this happens (and it's not consistent either!)

I tried googling for the answer, but I guess I couldn't come up with the
right keywords for an effective search.

Can anyone shed some light on this?
Thanks in advance.
