Had to ask, didn't you. Hmnn...

(one short trip to the shell later...)

OK, you need to modify your .pinerc Actually what I've done is copied it to
.pinerc.faq, which I call with "pine -p .pinerc.faq" So when I'm doing normal
mail reading, newsgroup, etc, I don't have the extra gunk.

In the modified rc there's a section that says:
# Add these customized headers (and possible default values) when composing

I've added:
customized-hdrs=URL: http://www.concentric.net/~Eastb/herps/faqindex.html,
Archive-name: pets/herp-faq,
Posting-frequency: monthly,
Followup-to: rec.pets.herp,
Approved: (well, you know)
Newsgroups: rec.pets.herp news.answers rec.answers

Seems to work pretty well.

Regards,

Bill
