Subject: How to make pine more elm-like?

Hi,
	I was a happy user of elm until I became a happier user with 
pine. I have elm-style-save=yes in my .pinerc , but there are other 
things that I miss from elm.

1) the ability to sort-tag-save messages from one mailbox to another

2) a feature that I found most desirable and is probably possible with 
pine but I haven't figure it out, is the automatic saving of composed or 
reply messages in the mailbox corresponding with the To: address, i.e. 
this is the line in .elm/elmrc (I think)
# save messages, incoming and outbound, by login name of sender/recipient?
savename = ON

Any thoughts on an X interface to pine as well? :)

When is the next version coming out? I have 3.89

cheers,

      All I ask is a chance to prove that money can't make me happy.

Simon,

The "elm-style-save" option is now obsolete, having been replaced by a 
couple feature-list options.  At least the first of your suggestions will 
be available in the next release of Pine.  We do not have any current 
plans for an X interface, although we have toyed with the idea of some 
primitive mouse support, about like PC-Pine has.  We are hoping to have 
the next release ready about late spring.  

Thanks for the suggestions!
