Are there any plans to make Pine for Macintosh? 

I'm sure this is a common question, though, I haven't seen any info about
this anywhere. 

Thanks, Dara

As far as I recall...

Originally there were no plans to do so.  However people kept asking and
the last I saw (quite a time back) was that it _may_ happen one day but
the stumbling blocks were staff time and finance.  I haven't heard
anything different; I don't think there's any active development going on
in this area.

That said, there's a very good IMAP mail client called "Mail Drop" for the
Apple Macintosh.  It's available free from:

Cheers,

: Do you know of any utility to convert the PINE addressbook into the
: MailDrop addressbook format? (MailConverter 2.2 does this for PINE to
: Eudora, but Eudora doesn't connect to IMAP)

I have since learned that the Mulberry IMAP e-mail client imports a PINE
addressbook, but would still be interested to hear of a stand-alone
utilitya for PINE to Mail Drop.
