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.
