Pine 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 IMAP daemon, a POP2
|
|
|
|
|
server, and a POP3 server, but not the pico editor.

If you want to use the spell checking feature of pine, install ispell and
|
|
|
|
|
set the environment variable SPELL to "${PREFIX}/ispell -l".

An optional configuration file "pine.conf" can be put into /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.
