Subject: reading other's inbox

Hi,

I'm using pine as my mail reader. I have my own INBOX (owner "claus")
and the inbox of another user (named "ane"). Procmail is delivering
the mail to both inboxes. As root I've changed the owner of the other
user's inbox to my user name (in /var/spool/mail):

-rw-------   1 claus    claus         555 Dec  6 11:18 ane

But every time procmail is putting new mail into this inbox, it
renames also the owner (actually it copies the old inbox to a new file
and creates a new file with the owner "ane":

-rw-------   1 claus    claus         555 Dec  6 11:18 BOGUS.ane.gjW
-rw-------   1 ane      ane          1939 Dec  7 07:49 ane

What can I do in order to be able to read ane's mail with pine?

Regards,
Claus.

HI all,

I was wondering if pine (specifically pico) has been compiled under
cygwin.  For those who don't know, Cygwin is a UNIX API for Windows NT
from <http://sourceware.cygnus.com/cygwin/>.  I know there is PC-Pine but
PC-Pine is not cygwin aware.  I'd like to use the pico editor with tin.
Any info will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Steven
