Subject: pcpine for DOS

I'm having a major problem.  I'm trying to install PcPine version 3.91 
for DOS and with a SLIP connection to an internet provider which is 
called Cris (concentric research information service).  The problem 
exists when I go to specify my inbox path.  Cris uses a pop3 mail server, 
so I specify my path like this:  {pop3.cris.com}inbox.  When I do this, 
the system comes back and says Host not found.  I know the domain name 
server is specified and works properly, because I have no problem with 
any of my other slip programs.  At the end of this post, I will include 
the text in my wattcp.cfg file so whoever reads this can confirm that I'm 
set up properly.  Is there a difference between a pop3 and imap server?  
If so, what do I need to do to set up pine since I don't know the imap 
address or if we have one for that matter?  Anyone's help would be welcome.
Thanks in advance

Guy
P.S. Here's the text of my wattcp.cfg file.
my_ip=192.0.2.1
gateway=199.3.12.1
netmask=255.255.255.0
nameserver=199.3.12.2
nameserver=199.3.12.3
domainslist="cris.com"
