Is anyone familiar with capturing email messages from pine using procomm
plus for windows? I am able to capture everything else successfully but on
pine all I get is the first and last line of text...and blank space in
between.  Any ideas? Or am i going about this in the wrong way?
Thanks

Why not just S)ave the mail you want to a folder/file? 
If you just want a screen at a shot, cut it to the clipboard and then 
paste it to a text editing app. You probably could write an aspect script 
to do this if you do it a lot.
Procomm for Windows will not capture a Pine screen and if you check, you 
will see it doesn't appear in the scrollback buffer either.

There are a couple ways to "capture" email messages from pine (download
them intact to a PC disk).  The most straightforward to describe is
to export the messages you want to save to files (the 'e' command)
and then download the files.  The more tricky to set up but perhaps
easier to use setup is to reconfigure the printer setup so that it does a
download instead.

Hmmm.  Just captured this message and scrolled back to the original 
message using Procomm for Windows.  I have no idea why this wouldn't work 
with others.

I would check my PCP+ settings. I capture my frequently and have never 
had a problem doing so.
