is there anyway to setup one "global" address book
 for the users of the shared unix system, so they can look each
 other up if they forgot someones address or don't know it.

 It sounds possible?

 thanks

Sure does. As a first step, look up the variable "Global-Address-Book" in
the M(ain), S(etup), C(onfig) section of pine. F1 will get you a help for
that.

Further information can be looked up in the pine FAQ and also in the pine
tech-notes. Both are available from:

       Pine Information Center:  http://www.washington.edu/pine
       Source distribution: ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/pine/pine.tar.Z
       Pine Technical Notes, included in the source distribution. C-Client
       messaging API library, included in the source distribution.

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
Robin
