Pine for FreeBSD 2.x is a tool for reading, sending, and managing
|
|
|
|
electronic messages. It was designed specifically with novice
|
|
|
|
computer users in mind, but can be tailored to accommodate the needs
|
|
|
|
of "power users" as well. Pine uses Internet message protocols (e.g.
|
|
|
|
RFC-822, SMTP, MIME, IMAP, NNTP) and runs on Unix and PCs. This

|
package also includes the Pico editor, the IMAP daemon, a POP2 server,
|
|
|
|
and a POP3 server.

If you want to use the spell checking feature of pine, set the
|
|
|
|
environment variable SPELL to "/usr/local/bin/ispell -l".

An optional configuration file "pine.conf" can be put into /usr/local/etc
|
|
|
|
to set system wide defaults. The format of this file is identical to the
|
|
|
|
.pinerc file that is auto-generated by pine in your home directory.

Also included in dot.pinerc.pgp.sample are example entries needed to
|
|
|
|
add to your .pinerc to activate the pgp add on scripts pgpdecode,
|
|
|
|
pgpencode, and pgpsign.
