I've been studying this. It's pretty funny that there is no problems in my OS/2 Jamnntpd. Yesterday I did more research of the code, and in nntpserv.c I commented out the line:

//   strcpy(mimefrom,&mimefrom[6]);

Compiled in 64bit Ubuntu (22.04.3) with -m32, and it seems to work. For now. :)

Also it depends on the news client how it shows the "From:" in the message list. Pretty weird. :D
