Rn patches 41-44 removed the "Reply-To:" from Pnews.  Instead a "From:" this
inserted. Unfortunately this causes inews (from B news Pl. 19) to not append
the .signature files.  Tracking this was particularly fun since followups
worked just fine.

A fix would be to have Pnews generate a "Reply-To:" lines instead of
"From:" lines.

Hopefully my signature appears below.
