This patch fixes the problem that 2.11 introduced when posting
messages to mail reflectors (like mod.computers.vax and laser-printers).
It is based on patch 4, but you should be able to apply it to any
version of 2.11 news pretty easily, as there isn't much code to change.

Keep this patch around in case you ever need to 'unpatch' inews.c in the
future.  This is not an official patch, although I have mailed it to
Rick for possible inclusion in future versions.
