LYNX-DEV Interesting discovery regarding the inews problem

[Larry W. Virden, x2487]

Well, after fooling around with inews, trying to clean up a lot of
errors (watch for an upcoming email with patches to several of its files)
I _think_ I know what's going on.

Here's the scenario.  This particular newsgroup comes from the line:

<a href="news://genetics.upenn.edu/perl.porters-gw";>Newsgroup 
perl.porters-gw</a>

When lynx goes there, it displays the code just fine.  It then recognizes
the newspost and newsreply request.

However, for some reason, the lynx mini-inews, when invoked to do the post,
isn't sending the post request to genetics.upenn.edu, but instead to my
local $NNTPSERVER.

Should lynx be changing NNTPSERVER, should it be passing the server
name to inews, or should that news:// be a nntp://?
