    How many different newsgroups are you going to post this to? How exactly
    were you using alpine as a newsreader to post to Google Groups?

    Only the "thousands" of people that use google groups.

    And far too many times they reply to ancient messages -- like
    your reply to a October 2, 1996 posting.

    The folks that use real newsreaders to post and read on usenet
    are having no such problems.

    Whenever I try to remove the checkmark from "Subscribe" and then to post, I get "error posting message." Restoring the checkmark doesn't work - the only way to post is to start over completely. This wasn't happening just two days ago or so - can anyone tell me what's going on?

    Thanks.
    at first, (around that time?) i too suspected the [Subscribe] checkmark

    It stands for a newsreader/email client developed by the Univ of
    Washington and released as an opensource package. It was originally
    called pine.

    Kids, this is just a sockpuppet that's been trolling by posting
    difficult to read nonsense with lots of whitespace in several newsgroups.

    did PINE originally stand for [Pine is not Elm] ?

    i think i've used both Pine and Elm, and maybe one more (with a similar name).

    and why did you have so much trouble with = = = and =20 =20 earlier ?

    It's no trouble at all. You posted quoted-printable encoding which has
    never been necessary on Usenet. I am under no obligattion to you to
    decode it. As it bothers you, then don't encode it to begin with.

    You can make up any expansion of the word you want. According to that
    Web page ( did you read it?) it says Alpine stands for either
    Alternatively Licensed Program for Internet News and Email
    or
    Apache Licensed Program for Internet News and Email
