Bug#2512: inewsinn configuration buglets



Package: inewsinn
Version: 1.4sec-7

| Hostname to appear in the From: line of postings from this machine ?
|  The user can override this by inserting their own From: line.
|  Enter the FQDN (ie, hostname and all the domains).  Default is deimos.mars.org.
|  Hostname for local postings:

Is there a distinction between this From: line and what is supposed to be used
for outgoing mail (/etc/mailname)? If not, the configuration ought to use
it. (Symlink /etc/news/whoami -> ../mailname ?)

In any case, there is also a typo:

| /etc/news/server installed.
| /etc/news/whoami installed.
| /etc/news/organization installed.
| /etc/news.inn.conf updated.
