Subject: Creating Folders.

Hello,
	I have posted a similar request for folders and how to create
them. I want to clarify it. I am using pc-pine on my computer to connect
to my ISP, whose E-mail service runs a POP server. I was told that 3.96
is the first version of pine that will support POP, which is fortunate,
because it's what I've got. I bellieve I have entered all the
configuration data correctly, domain, username,etc. My only drawback is
folders. Do I have to create them on my own computer or are they created
for me on the remote server, my ISP? If I do have to create them on my pc
what is the format. I have tried c:\pine\foldername, although that is
definitely not correct and the program told me this with a folder format
is invalid message. It also said it couldn't open my inbox, folder
doesn't exist, even though I gave it the location in the setup
configuration, [pop.example.net/pop3]INBOX. Do I have to create this
identical folder on my machine, or can I name my inbox what I want?
Please E-mail. Thank you very much for your time.
Dave.

PC-Pine 3.96 does not support POP.

You'll need to wait for 4.00 for that (and even then it will be use POP
for "quasi-online" mode, not "offline" access.)  Or find an ISP that
supports IMAP...
