Yep! BTW, from the Pine Info Center:
pine-bin.sun56 . . . . . . . . . Dec 5 16:53 9559k
which is 25% of my quota, whereas:

Definitely worthwhile. Procmail was another program which, until
last year, I had to have in my own disk space, though it's now
provided.

There are several biff-type programs available to do just this.
But do check that they correctly juggle the modification/access
times so that mutt also knows that new mail has arrived.
(Particularly if over NFS, apparently.) Search for "biff" in the
Packages file.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Where does it say they're facts? I am just saying that there's no point
in us both writing things like "Pine's help and configuration systems
are vastly superior to mutt" in reply to each other - that's what I
meant by a religious discussion. I didn't mean that my views aren't just
as much religion or prejudice as yours.
BTW I thought "power users" were users who'd learnt everything and
want tools that do just what they want them to do and don't get in
their way. So that's the way I used it in my postings. Sorry if you
meant something different.
Cheers,
