	you are right, Jonathan. I have custom header to set FROM: & 
Sender: for outgoing mails. That must have confused PINE too much to tell 
who is sending the mail.
	Like u said, the default should work. Index-format use 'FROMORTO' 
in default, if PINE can tell whether the sender is yourself or not.

#Version? I've been using pine as my primary MUA for nearly a decade on
#various systems and have never seen this behavior exibited. I just spent
#about 10 minutes trying to figure out how to make it happen, and
#discovered this:
#
#OPTION: Index-Format
#
#This option is used to customize the content of lines in the MESSAGE INDEX
#screen. Each line is intended to convey some
#amount of immediately relevant information about each message in the
#current folder.
#
#Pine provides a pre-defined set of informational fields with reasonable
#column widths automatically computed. You can,
#however, replace this default set by listing special tokens in the order
#you want them displayed. <snip>
#
#You get the idea. Main screen --> Setup --> Config and page down to the
#end. You must have some strange format option set that monkeyed with the
#default.
