i tried pine e-mail, just once, yesterday.  and since then i have received
221 messages from you--all the same exact message, 221 times.  since i
have logged on today i have received 11 more of the same fucking message.

stop it.
now.

i don't know if this is an accident, or if it is not your fault...either
way, i do not care. 
if you do not know how to prevent this annoying, frustrating incident from
occuring again, ask someone for help, or tell me where i can get help with
this.  

if i have not made myself very clear, let me do so now...

stop sending your messages to me.  
do not send me anything.
ever.

also, i will be sure to notify the next 10 e-mail users i see today at my
university that if they try out your pine e-mail, they may encounter the
same frustrating affair that i have encountered.

once again...just stop it.  a reply is not necessary, just stop it.

What is it?  Who sent you 221 copies of the same email?  Don't post
to the group this kind of message.

Umm, that's either a problem with your server, or some individual is mail 
bombing you.  I've been using Pine since last year, and, other than a few 
configuration problems that were corrected, it has ran flawlessly.

> i don't know if this is an accident, or if it is not your fault...either

Geez!  Aren't we in a bad mood!  Next time, try to remedy this problem 
with your ISP or system admin. before making childish posts like you have 
done.  If you're not absolutely sure what the problem is, it's a good 
idea to check locally (that is, with your admin.) first.  I'm judging 
that you didn't do this, or you wouldn't have made this post in the first 
place.

> this.           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Precisely what you should have done before complaining with foul language 
to this newsgroup!!

> if i have not made myself very clear, let me do so now...

How can you make yourself clear to us when you're not 100% sure why 
you're having your problems?!  Sheese!

> stop sending your messages to me.  

Who are you talking about???  Most people on comp.mail.pine are totally 
confused about this.

> same frustrating affair that i have encountered.

Oh boy.  That's a good way to spend a portion of your life:  tell those 
users a problem YOU are not even sure about.  Go ahead.  Spread the 
confusion.

> once again...just stop it.  a reply is not necessary, just stop it.

Again, what the hell are you talking about?????  Get your facts straight, 
then we will have a better chance of helping you.  Obviously, you don't 
want that at the moment.  Judging by your name, I take it you're female.  
Just to be blunt since you were in your post, is it that time of the month?
