I'm a Pine user. OK, this is being sent with Mutt but only because
my syadmin objects to Pine in its last free version. Once I learn regular
expressions I might even use Mutt exclusively but until then Pine is the
mailer which protects me from virus foolishness. And of course Mutt won't
reda HTML mail... but most people are polite enough not to send it
:-) Yours,
Jon
