that sounds like for email responses... remember, though, that netmail would be
handled in a special way that news clients don't have a clue about...
especially since it is not email gated to netmail but that is possible of you

TBH, i think it is the first line(s) but it is also done in an article so there
is no TO: line to use... it really is new territory to play in...
