Please forgive me if this is a FAQ - I have not been able to find
reference to it.  I am sysadmin of a Linux PC and do most of my work,
including email, from the root account.  I have the /root/.pinerc file
instructing pine sessions run by root to use the same folders as are used
by my personal account, dlane (ie. root and dlane use the same .../mail
directory).  Problem is, whenever mail is sent out from root launched pine
sessions, it provides the return address Dave Lane 
<root@stan.lincoln.ac.nz>.  Is there any way I can configure pine to use a
different user name (ie. dlane) in place of root for outgoing mail?? 
Please say yes!  I do not subscribe to the pine-info mailing list, so 
please send mail to dlane@lincoln.ac.nz!  
Cheers from New Zealand,

Dave
