I'm having some difficulity getting postnews to put the proper return mail
address in my news posts.  I have MYDOMAIN defined as "sdl.UUCP" in defs.h.  I
also have GENERICPATH defined as "sdl" and GENERICFROM defined as "sdl.UUCP".
But every not I post gets the return address listed as "lad@lad.UUCP" and not
"lad@lad.sdl.UUCP" as it should be.  

The system is a Sun 3/160 running SunOS 4.0.3.  The news software is Bnews
2.11.11.  I have tried 2.11.17 but can't even get that to run.  inews hangs in
device wait whenever it's invoked.  I noticed that 2.11.17 has VOID_SIGNALS
defined, which rename int's to viod's for SunOS 4.0.x. 

If anyone knows the answers to these problems, please, oh please, send me some
mail. 

Thanks.
