I've finally taken the time to fix a minor bug in the way notes
stores news items as responses.  That is, if a news title is
greater than TITLEN, it will not be filed as a response even if
it should be.  This has to do with some funny iterations in
findtitle, but is fixed by changing the strcpy() on line 269
in newsinput.c to strncpy(...,TITLEN).

Storing news items as responses was such a great hack, this fix
will enhance the original idea a bit more.
