Subject: Question about header

From: [email-masked] (David Ho)

Could I configure Pine so that when I am reading my mail and have the full
header mode off, I could display more than the four default headers (Date,
From, To, and Subject)?  Thanks for any help.

Here is an extract from a document I wrote:

: 6.  Configuring Pine using the "Config Screen"
:  
: In previous versions of Pine, you had to alter the .pinerc file if you
: wanted to configure Pine.  In Pine 3.90, you can configure Pine by
: going to the Setup Configuration Screen (which is called the "Config
: Screen" in this document).  To find this screen, go to the Main Menu,
: press S followed by C.
:  
: You can use the Config Screen to change the settings of some of Pine's
: variables.  If you are uncertain as to the purpose of a variable (or a
: value), move the cursor so that the appropriate line of the Config
: Screen is highlighted, and press ? (for Help).  Any changes that you
: make to the Config Screen will eventually be written to your .pinerc
: file.  For many changes, the change that you want will be effected
: immediately: however, for other changes you will need to leave Pine
: and then re-start it.
: 
: 10. Supplying your own headers
:  
: You can supply your own headers or set default values for the standard
: headers by setting the customized-hdrs variable.  To set this
: variable, go to the Config Screen (see Section 6) and then move the
: cursor down to the line beginning "customized-hdrs =".  Press A (for
: Add Text) followed by a comma-separated list of the names of the
: headers that you want to be included, e.g.:
:    Bcc:[email-masked]
:  
: 11. Controlling what headers get displayed when composing
:  
: You can control what headers are displayed on the screen when you are
: composing a message by setting the default-composer-hdrs variable.  To
: set this variable, go to the Config Screen (see Section 6) and then move
: the cursor down to the line beginning "default-composer-hdrs =".
: Press A (for Add Text) followed by a comma-separated list of the names
: of the headers that you want to be displayed, e.g.:
:    To,Cc,Bcc,Subject

Barry-

Thanks for the help but the document that you sent me really doesn't 
answer my question.  I would like to know if I could configure the header 
when I am reading my mail and not composing mail.

>: Screen" in this document).  To find this screen, go to the Main Menu,

  How would you define your own headers in PINE 3.05? Which varibles in 
the .pinerc do you have to edit?

  Thanks
