Subject: How to exit (not quit) Pine

All of the other mailers that I use have the option to exit (X)
instead of quitting (Q).  The difference is that quitting saves
changes to the message file (clears New flag to Unread, deletes marked
messages, etc.), while exit abandons all changes and leaves without even
resetting the new message flags to unread.

Is these a way to do this in Pine?  It seems to always clear flags,
even if I quit with a ^C.

Thanks.

The problem is that Pine does not remember the previous state of the folder,
so such an option is not really feasible...
