oh, nevermind, I see it. I guess we need to add another button in case the
fut is poster, so that you'd have the option to reply-to poster, or via the
web interface, override the entry. also the newsgroups field in the web
interface should weed out "poster" (and ignore it, I guess), since we don't
want the web interface to be an open relay for mail...
hmmm... does that mean we should disallow FUT set to "lugnet.general,
poster", since the "poster" will be ignored?
ideas?
