Subject: Pine use of PC memory

Pine does not make as much use of extended memory as it should. As a 
result there are cases when it runs out, such as when including a 
(relatively) large PC file; 100k is probably enough. This is not very 
good; what is worse is that in some cases the ^R command merely truncates 
the read, thus constructing a bad message.

For 3.92, please improve the diagnostic; for some future improv ement 
please improve the memory handling.

	Is this why I keep getting "out of memory" and "bug detected" errors
while testing the PC-NFS version of 3.91?  I don't see this problem
with the winsock version but I'd rather use the PC-NFS version.  Anyone
know of a fix/work-a-round?

	Thanks!

Hi,

Could someone tell me how to specify the inbox path (IMAP syntax) so that
Pine read the a mailbox I have on a VMS system ? I tried the usual
{host.domain}inbox string but it doesn't work. 

Thanks for help

what IMAP server is running on the VMS system? if it is running PMDF's 
IMAP server, then the syntax should work. You can tell if it running 
PMDF's IMAP server by telneting to port 143 of the system.
