Thanks. That helped, a bit. I.e. the specified format line is now used
and not just ignored as it was previously (e.g. I can change it and it
shows). But, I still cannot make it show the contents of 'To:' instead
of 'From:'. I tried

 (gnus-extra-headers (To Newsgroups))

and

 (gnus-extra-headers '(To Newsgroups))

to no avail. It still only shows my own name (i.e. the 'From:' header.

BTW. I'm sure the dots were not my own invention - they show up after
setting some of the parameters via customize (I'm using XEmacs). Seems
some kind of a conflict here. Also, some of the parameters which are
specified via dots (e.g. to-list, to-address) are picked up by Gnus
ok. Any ideas?
