What is MailConverter 2.0 and where did you find it?

For a number of reasons, I moved 50 or so messages from my inbox to "saved
messages" in Pine.

Now, I would like to move them back to the inbox and download them via a
POP client.

However, when ever I use the "save" command, I am prompted for a folder
name, I duly enter "INBOX" and it tells me the folder does not exist, and
would I like to create it. The "list folder" function idicates the inbox
is indeed in existance, and the ^T (to folders) function in the save
dialogue indicates the same thing.

In fact, this protocol would be a good thing to learn so that I can also
download my sent messages.

So, in bottom line terms - help?!?

TIA

Ouch! Bad protocol to answer one's own post, but I gotta share my
work-around, or solution (I am not sure which):

I would till be curious as to how to manipulate such things in Pine, just
not so desperately so!

Hmmm...  Pine should be able to save to the INBOX without problem.  It
seems like there were some old versions that had problems, but it
should work in 3.91...

You can move to INBOX only by going to the folder list and hitting ENTER 
on the INBOX.  Otherwise you are in a different folder collection, and 
won't let you do that.  This, I believe, was his problem.
