Well, this is a special case. `F' works just fine for `real' news
postings and for `real' mail messages, but for news postings that are
really mail messages, you will of course see some strange behavior. I
suggest actually setting to-list (or was it to-address?) so that
follow-ups are not posted to the news group.
Or you could just ignore the problem and post the follow-ups to the
newsgroup as well as sending them by mail to all recipients. (The
latter will be done in all cases.)
