I am a student at Linfiled. Calvin with Pine E-Mail Reader is our server.  I
am at home for Spring break and trying to retrieve my e-mail at school from
my home computer.  Can you help me with this?

Depends... You can a) telnet your university and read the mail there or b)
make a slip/ppp connection to get the mail home.

ad a)

1. See if you have a telnet program.

2. Check what terminal emulation you have to use to connect.

3. Connect, login, launch pine...

ad b)

1. Talk to the people at your university's help--desk and get the ppp--package
   that they should have.

2. Follow the instructions.

You question is not pine related. Check the correct news group (e.g.
comp.protocols.xy ...)
