Besides Will's excellent suggestion, please also try the following: In your /etc/pine.conf.fixed (or /etc/pine.conf or ~/.pinerc), your smtp-server setting is probably blank; set it to localhost: # List of SMTP servers for sending mail. If blank: Unix Pine uses sendmail. smtp-server=localhost Please let me know if it works. :) (I had this trouble a long time ago, and took me a long time to figure out how to fix it, on my computer anyway. :) Anthony -- Anthony Fok Tung-Ling [EMAIL PROTECTED] Civil Engineering http://www.ualberta.ca/~foka/ University of Alberta, Canada Keep smiling! *^_^* -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
