-=> Quoting Paul Edwards to Jeff Green <=-
Hello Paul,
JG> Well, that seemed to work. It's showing you as Paul Edwards from

PE> Ah yes, I see that too. I will be interested to see what happens if

PE> puts in X-comment-to (tin doesn't appear to), and whether your gating
PE> software knows about that also. Otherwise, messages will come out as
PE> addressed to "All", but I don't think that's what Alan is talking
PE> about. BFN. Paul.
Actually, this is the very thing that has concerned me all along with
newsgroups. Any gated mail to fido is always addressed to "all".
So you don't
really know a particular message is addressed to you unless you actually read
ALL the messages.
I know many real news readers are threaded, so you can see the chain of
replies and who started it. Can this information be used to somehow put in
the intended "TO" name? Or is there simply not enough information in the
message to do this?
