    If you have a World Wide Web browser, look at my home home page.
It does not use highlighting, but I have a script for showing the
number of articles in each mail folder.

If you list the folders wherre you recieve mail in the Incoming
Folders list, you can TAB to the next folder with new mail.  Pine
won't stop on a folder with no unseen messages...

    If you want a display of how many messages are in each folder
*outside* of Pine, such as at login, browse my home page.  I have two
scripts, one perl and one a shell front end, which do just this.
