PINE doesn't do POP3. You'd have to install fetchmail in order to get your e-mail to your UNIX mailbox, which PINE can easy do. PINE can do IMAP and will work for you only if your mail server supports it. Mutt, which is another console-based e-mail reader, supports POP3. -- Matt Barton matt@fear.net Indianapolis, IN http://www.mattbarton.ws/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
