Hi Frankie,
Couple of questions please...

Question: Obviously I put my own ISP's smtp server there, which is
mail.mhonline.net, but do I keep the quotes or drop them?

You suggested letting Pine supply the "from" address, but when I do that
it breaks the ability to send mail to other local users when the link is
down.

There is a brute force solution that I am seriously thinking about -
namely, to switch pine configurations depending on whether I want to mail
to a local user or to the outside world. I have to strip all references to
my ISP from Pine for it to work on the local circuit, but I have to add
them again if I want a properly formed return address on outgoing
mail. There has got to be a better way!

(famous last words)
