Re: mhuxj.331: Collapsing Addresses
I don't see any reason to put address manipulation code into netnews.
If replying via the path is not correct, then recnews should just
use the last system name and expect 'delivermail' or its equiv
to figure it out.
In short, having news be smarter than mail about net addresses is
not the way to go.
