When I post a new message in Tin 2.6.3, after I enter the subject
and press Enter, Tin generates the "stub" of a new article and opens
it in my editor (nvi) with `+7', which complains:
-c option, 1: illegal address: only 6 lines in the file
And indeed, there are only six lines in the generated file:

Very odd. What is VISUAL set to ?
vi, invoking nvi on this system. I have tried vim as well,
but the pre-generated stub article was not affected.
Do you have an empty ~/.signature File ? Maybe that is why.
Try creating a ~/.signature with 1 'real' line and see what
happens. Or maybe delete file ~/.signature
The error is observed with either:
a. sigfile=
b. sigfile=--none (tin's convention for no sig)
in my tinrc. With a path to an non-empty text file,
the behavior is correct. With an empty signature file,
there is no error, but the article stub ends with a
signature delimiter -- Tin is obeying its rc file to
the letter.
The problem is in whatever component is responsible for
generating the stub artile, for it /fails/ to end it with
two empty lines with `sigfile=--none' .
Also check ~/.tin/tinrc and see if there is simething odd in
that.
Duh...
