As should be shown by examining the full header of the message that I 
posted, I am using PINE v4.64, running on Debian Sarge.

Usually, URLs are displayed as clickable links, on which I can right 
click, and copy  the link to a browser window, and so go to the URL.

It has just occurred to me, that the URL above, does not include the 
"www", which might (?) be the reason that it does not show as a 
clickable link in PINE, whereas other URL's generally display as 
clickable links in PINE.

Anyway, the question still remains unanswered, since it was unable to 
be included, possibly due to government unintelligence gathering, in the 
message to which I originally responded - what is to be the new name of 
the conference? The Richard Alston Uninformative Technology Conference? 
The Helen Coonan Uninformative Technology Conference? The Conference of 
Australian Linux Users? The AUUG Annual Conference?

Does anyone know?

Or, is it a mushroom job?
