        Why do you think there is a command?  And why do you think you
need to set it up from a command line?

Dear Ed:

I use the shell account primarily.  I like to 
check my mail from other shell accounts without
having to leave the service I'm currently logged
onto.  It's really neat because you can see
if there is anything you to want to respond to and
then continue to work.  It's done like so at the
bash:

pine -f {whatever your mailhost is}

I've already set up IMAP in my account.  It's just
that a friend of mine also uses the shell for
convenience and wants to do the same thing I
can.  I don't remember I did it the first time.  
Next time I'll write it down.

I happened to find someone in tech support that day who
who knew the command.  He was very knowledeable 
and knew exactly what to do....it was very simple.  
He had me type a command at the bash and it was done.  
It's just that I can't remember what the command was
or locate the person that had that expertise.  It
took seconds and there is a little e-mail that
is produced and it stays in your inbox (it contains
configuration information and there is a warning
not to delete it.

The current people in tech support don't know what
the command is...I thought someone out there
in pineland would know.

Regards

Kathleen
