Subject: Needed: Mail reader that works in Wyse60 Emulation!

After spending a couple days trying to "fix" pine and pico to
work with Wyse60's under SCO Unix, I've given up.  I really need to find
some character based mail reader that works in Wyse60 emulation.   It need
to be easy enough for salesmen. :)   I'm open to just about anything now other
than /bin/mail.

Thanks,

Dan

Why not set your Wyse 60 to VT100 emulation mode.  You could do this 
under software control.  Write a script to set your term to vt100, then 
execute pine, then reset your term on exiting pine.  At least I think you 
can do this.    <shrug>

I've got a similar, slightly harder problem:  my client has a lot of
Wyse 50's attached to an HP machine running HP-UX 10.0.  Is there ANY
way to get reasonable behavior out of pine and pico in this environment,
or any good alternative mail reader?
