I have just tried to update my FAQ on the faq-server and it returned
the following error:
>> Subject: Your "update" request to the news.answers FAQ server

I haven't upgraded my FAQ since August 1996 and since then the mailer
software on our mail hub has been upgraded to `sendmail 8.8.8'. Is
it this that is splitting my Newsgroups line (and if so how do I stop
it) or is the miscreant the faq-server?
The documentation for `sendmail 8.8.8' was unhelpful, as was the
"HELP" message I retrieved from the faq-server.
Many thanks,
Martin
