Subject: Help - Subject Line in Index - Alphabetical sorting

I hope this one doesn't start a fight.

In previous version of Pine, when doing a sort by subject, any leading "["
characters were ignored. Now those are sorted to the top. Anyone know a
way to return to the old way? Many posts have the same keyword at the
start of the subject line (some surrounded by brackets like [text] and
some not) . Now Pine sorts them separately.

procmail. If you don't start using procmail within the next 24hrs, your head
will be chopped off. Trust me. You want to kill this garbish (mainly endorsed
by braindead Windog "Adminstrators" who simply don't know any better (or
anything, whichever you prefer).
