Subject: New pine and inbox folder

Why does the new Pine not always put the inbox folder at the top as did
previous version?  Now it moves around as folders are added and deleted
and this makes it a bit harder to go back to.  Since I switch from and
to the inbox a lot, it would be nice to have it as it was.

I agree that the inbox folder should have a fixed place in the folder
display screen.  Upper left as it is in 3.05 is ideal.

I hope 'sent-mail' and 'saved-messages' will also be in the #2 and #3
positions also.  Have you given any thought to 'aligning' the names of
these two folders to (for example):
	sent-mail	saved-mail
or	sent-messages	saved-messages
... or at least giving users the option of changing -both- of these names
(via the .pinerc file).  Currently only one of these may be altered in
.pinerc (to the best of my knowledge).

while we're on the subject of folders, someone brought up the fact that if
you save a message in a folder other than what is named by the user on the
from line, and it gets saved in the current working directory as opposed to
the mail folder directory, naive users can't find what they've saved
later.

I don't know what to suggest here.  ???

This is how it was working with pine 3.05. I haven't looked at 3.07
yet regarding this action.

Dave,

Both Pine 3.05 and 3.07 have this behavior when the configuration variable
"elm-style-save" is set on.

While being true to Elm, this practice has confused many people so it was
changed for the next (August) Pine release.
