There's a barrier we need to go through before digging into
documentation. First, say, we need to know we are using the right tools
and reading the right documentation, and help from experts are more
useful in these steps than with problems we can solve later by reading
source code and RFCs.

That said, I was able to make good use of tin after your tips. Input from
novices like me can be useful, like in this situation which, I think,
suggests that setting 'disable_sender' to 'on' by default could save a
lot of time for beginners to find their way.

Thanks a lot for your help, tin made my life a lot easier. Best,
