This version of pine includes add-on code to use SSL to connect to
|
|
servers. This is sort of equivalent to clicking on the 'server requires
|
|
SSL' button in Netscape or Outlook or the like.

Pine (Program for Internet News & Email) 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.
|
|
|
|
Besides Pine this package includes the Pico editor, the Pilot file browser.
|
|
|
|
An optional set of configuration files can be put into /usr/local/etc
|
|
to set system wide defaults. Have a look at the documentation installed
|
|
in /usr/local/share/doc/pine/ for more details.
|
|
|
|
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.
