This note is to announce the availability of the Pine Message System
version 4.00.  This release represents many months of work and introduces
significant new functionality.  Nearly every aspect of Pine's behavior has
seen enhancement in one way or another.

A reasonably detailed list of improvements can be found in the built-in
release notes ("R" off the Main Menu), and via:

        http://www.cac.washington.edu/pine
and:
        ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/pine/docs

As for performance expectations, note that this version has not been
exposed to widespread general use.  Due to the amount of new and revised
code, it is important that you carefully test and determine for yourself
that it performs suitably in your environment before placing it into
production use.

Source for the latest Pine release is available in: 

        ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/pine/pine.tar.Z
and
        ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/pine/pine.tar.gz

and precompiled binaries for the various systems we have direct access to
are available in:

        ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/pine/unix-bin
and
        ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/pine/unix-bin-compressed

Unfortunately, PC-Pine cannot be made available at this time.  There
remains a small set of PC-specific enhancements not yet fully implemented
nor tested.  Please stay tuned!

As always, Thanks and Enjoy!

Sincerely,

The Pine Development Team
