I'm using Pine 4.05 on a Debian 2.0 platform at work. MS Office is the standard desktop automation application around here except for a small band of Unix enthusiasts. I've just installed Star Office, mostly so I can read the MS Word documents everybody sends me. I'm trying to reconfigure Pine so that it will automatically start up swriter3 for a attachment type of DOC. I thought the way to do that was to change /etc/mime.types, which I did. I modified the line that specified msword as the application for doc and dot files to be swriter3, but Pine still thinks its an MSWORD application. I also looked in the /etc/mailcap file but didn't find any mention of msword in there. I've looked on the Pine Info site and it mentions this and states that one should change the /etc/mime.types file. Anybody have any experience with this?
Thanks...
