Any chance of support for remote ~/.newsrc files?

If the ~/.newsrc file is on the same machine as the news spool, you can do
that now using IMAP.

More flexible capability is coming in IMAP4 support, but that will be in
a version of Pine after 3.92 (I am alpha-testing IMAP4 code now).

    If I may ask, how many more upgrades of Pine3.* are planned or
anticipated before moving along to IMAP4-Pine4.*?  After 3.92 (and any
bugfix/maintenance releases), will there be any more feature-laden
releases without IMAP4 support, comparable to the new features being
provided in 3.92?  Or doesn't anyone want to hazard a prediction about
this?

Thanks...

We don't know yet.  If the IMAP4 c-client is useable by the time we get
Pine 3.92 finished and stable, we will probably make the switch then, but
there is always the possibility of external pressures or unforseen
problems...
