Subject: Pine for Vax/VMS

Hi all,

I understand that there is a version of Pine available for Vax/VMS systems, and would 
be interested if anybody knows where I might obtain the code.  Archie points to 
ftp.ias.wa.waw.pl, however this site has always been unreachable when I attempt to contact it.
If there is anyone around who has experience in installing Archie on VMS, I'd really like to 
hear from you!

Cheers,

Philip Plant,
Computer Officer,
Silsoe College.

If you consult my own installation notes it will give you pointers
to the materials.  I assume you'd like the free version, done by
Yehavi Bourvine at HUJI in Jerusalem.  Start at my page:

Gosh, Silsoe, that takes me back to the days of freezing cold
cross-country motor cycle journeys, back in student days in the
1960's.  Ho hum...

p.s.  Look out a decent usenet client, though.  On my favourite
VMS system, we run Madison NEWSRDR as our usenet news client.  
(I'm only using this present system temporarily, as my regular 
systems are "down" over the break.)  I'm unimpressed by both
Netscape and PINE as usenet clients.

good luck
