Mike, thanks for the answer... My mail server was OK... It was sending emails correctly to the /var/spool/mail/$USER. But pine was moving the messages from there up to the mbox file at user's home directory.. I took a look at the .pinerc and the inbox directory was not defined. Then I forced the spool directory and now everything is ok again... Thanks

Well, I'm not so sure about that, but I remember in my old RH6, when reading remotely my e-mails with pine, they weren't moved from the spool, once I could read them after with the netscape locally... Today, with RH7X, they are moved to a local file mbox... so, once I run pine, I cannot read my emails after in netscape... I would like to know if it is possible to configure pine to work as before...and a tip of how to do it.. >> >> Thanks, >> Joao >> > > > >_______________________________________________ >Redhat-list mailing list >[EMAIL PROTECTED] >https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
