Yes, this is happening to me too. I can't seem to find where this is
happening. The field in hbuf for the newsgroups line is usually set to
LBUFLEN which is 1024,
<header.h>
struct hbuf {
char from[BUFLEN]; /* From: */
char path[PATHLEN]; /* Path: */
char nbuf[LBUFLEN]; /* Newsgroups: */
...
but somewhere this must be getting jammed into something of BUFLEN in
size, which is 128 on small address space systems.
Can anyone find where this is happening?
