    Scott, you're lucky we're a friendly group, otherwise someone would come
    around and annihilate you with the photon torpedoes for posting a test
    message outside of a designated testing newsgroup.

    :-P

    Another friendly response might be: "Your test failed--it showed up in
    the wrong newsgroup."

    However, I'd like to point out that the OP's From: address has an invalid syntax. Instead of a top-level domain of "(none)", he should use
    "invalid". I believe that is in an eternal-september FAQ.

    Those email-address formatting issues are what I was trying to resolve. trn lets you override much of its configuration with environment variables, but what shows up in the From: line isn't one of them AFAICT. It appears to be built in at compile time. If you add a From: line when editing a message,
    it appears to be left alone, but you shouldn't have to do that.

    Falling back to tin in the meantime...

    It should be fixed in trn now. It's running in a Docker container now, and I've wrangled its build system.
