Subject: Including remote mailbox in incoming folders list

How do you accomplish this?  When I enabled incoming folders and then
attempted to add my remote pop3 mailbox, after I entered the full path
info, I was given a second prompt with a request to enter a mailbox name
that Pine would attempt to create on the remote server.  I didn't have a
clue what to do at this point, so I bailed out.

First add the name of the server, you should add a line like:

   name.of.server/pop3/user=your_login_name_in_thaat_server

then it will ask you for your folder, try adding: INBOX

and finally give nick for it, just write anything you like, this is the
name of the folder that you will see in pine. You can always rename it
afterwards.

  I hope this works.
