Hi All, I am at the University of Washington using PINE from home. I heard
from someone that I maybe can use Eudora Pro to UW instead of PINE or with
PINE or something similar? Eudora would be nicer than Pine from home, (no
offense) Thanks for the info, ya'll, J

Hi,

You forgot to mention the platform and OS you are using.  From what I
understand, Eudora is a Windoze application and Pine is a Unix app.  I
don't remeber eith or both of them having versions on both Windoze and
Unix.

If you are using Windoze, definitely use a graphical mail user agent like
Eudora Pro 3.0.  Talk with the E-mail administrator at your university to
see if they have one you can get through the them.  They probably have 
standard package which they will support (a _big_ plus!).  Make sure they
help you set up your mail user agent as a POP3 client.

Anyway, if you are using Unix without X then you have two good choices for
a non-graphical mail user agent.  Pine and Elm.  Each have their proponents
and their detractors.  Personally, I prefer Pine! (no flames please! To
each his own.)

If you are using Unix with X you will have to do some research.  I don't
know of any good graphical mail users agents for Unix that support POP3.
Maybe that is another question for your university's e-mail admin.

Good luck!

Paul
