Hello -

New subscriber to the list.  Also a newbie to Linux RH 6.1 - now that's
out of the way.

I have been trying to use Pine as my email program.  I can send
messages, but for some reason I cannot receive messages.  I am presently
using Netscape's email program and have no problem receiving messages.
Can someone help me or at least point me in the right dirtection?  I
REALLY like Pine and would like to use it.

Thanks you,

Dick Williams

A good place to start is http://www.ii.com/internet/messaging/pine/#uw

If you want to provide specifics, someone here will be able to provide a
more detailed response.

As I said, I am new to Linux usinfg RH 6.1.  Some folks mentioned I should
install *fetchmail* and then configure *fetchmailconf* - well, I'm lost.
According to gnome rpm fetchmail is already installed.  I verified this.  I
tried to configure it thru the menu in Pine, but still no messages.  I don;t
really know what specifics you are looking for.  I'm not computer iliterate,
just suffering from 13 years of Microsoft domination......I learn this Linux
stuff sooner or later. :)

Regards.
