Should there not be a

	realname = buf;

at line 61 of init.c ?  It seems to lose my name without it :-(

Also, regarding line 411 in hdrs.c, 

>   if (show_to && strncmp(p, login, strlen(login)))

question:  what is the strncmp for?  It seems to prevent recognition
of alternates where the login is not the same, or e.g. if my
From: were something like R.S.H.Khoo at RoboBar.Co.UK, even if I specified
that as an alternate ....

Would it do any harm to delete the strncmp ? 

Thanks for any reply...
