Any other hints/tips/caveats with Cnews that I can pass on to > those in charge of news and mail? Yes. The inews shell script in cnews has commented out code to add a lines header. Just uncomment it. I did and it works fine with gnus. If you are a c hacker, you ought to be pretty much at home with modifying the inews shell script. There is a long, religious discussion in news.bnews over whether this lines stuff and whether it should be defaulted on or off etc. But it does work. I'm not enough of a lisp hacker to comment on your lisp solution with any degree of confidence. I'll leave that to others. But if you put the change in inews (or have your news people do it)., you don't need the lisp changes. -- Richard Maine maine@elxsi.dfrf.nasa.gov [130.134.1.1]
