In a former life   ;-) 
I was able to log all outbound and (by default) 
inbound messages into a notebook called  yyyymon, 
where yyyy is the year and mon is the three-letter month. 
So today's notebook is  "1993may". 
 
	I've found this month-by-month logging 
very convenient.   I can now move all of 1992xxx 
from my mailbox sub-directory to, say, tape or floppy 
to put into cold storage.   (sure ... compresss it too) 
But I haven't yet figured out how,  with Pine, 
to automate the rotation of notebook names.

It would be nice if mail to the Pine list were in a form that it could be
read by Pine.  Latin-1??????

Would it be possible for you to use a standard charset name in the future?
It is annoying to have to convert every message you send before I can read
it.  I know you have asked for Latin-1, but that is not defined in the
MIME standard yet.  What you should be using is US-ASCII or ISO-8859-x
(x=1-9).  Until the specification for Latin-1 is published in an RFC and
registered with IANA it should not be used in Internet mail (paraphrased
from RFC1341, pg20).

As for the answer to your question, there were some utilities mentioned on
this list a couple days ago that should do the job for you...

I get the below message from pine for Rick Troth's mail:

>>  [Part 1, Unknown text "Latin-1"  18 lines]
>>  [Can not display this part. Use the "A" command to save in a file]

But if I do a forward or a reply (include message), it puts the text in
there! It says it can't display it, but yet it includes it. What gives?
