Subject: Multiple PC-Pine users on 1 PC

How do I configure PC-Pine to allow for several people receiving mail on 
the same PC? I'd like to have several Pine icons that are for the 
different users and IMAP servers.

Suggestions?

Marty,

In our context, running the app off of a Novel 3.12 server, we do this
here by pointing PC-Pine for Windows to specific pinerc files using the -p
switch. Set up the program icon to read f:\apps\winpine\pine.exe
-p:\users\%user%\mail\pinerc, where %user% is an environment variable the
Novell login process creates. This lets each user store their pinerc file
and local mailbox collections in a secure place. You could, however,
create multiple program manager icons, each hardcoded to a specific pinerc
file.
