I seem to be having a BAD problem with news V5.9.  I cannot REPLY to
any postings.   Here's what happens.

NEWS> REPLY
Subject=this is a sample subject
TO: SOMEUSER@SOMESITE.SOMEDOMAIN
(the editor is now invoked).......
(I hit ctrl-z to send the message)

and I get

%MAIL-E-INVALID Invalid user spec '"user@somesite.somedomain"""'

It looks like there's something funny with the way NEWS V5.9 handles
outgoing mail?    I was successfully able to REPLY to the message under
news 5.8 (the SAME message).

Additionally, I cannot get  NEWS_POST.CC to work at all.    I have mentioned
this in another posting, and the problem is there under V5.8 as well.

Has anyone else had trouble REPLYing to news under V5.9?
