Subject: pc-pine image viewing

I'm trying to link my pc-pine to view images.  The mimetype file is in
place, the mailcap file is in place and the image line reads:

image/*;C:\Program Files\Netscape\Communicator\Program\netscape.exe %s

pine fires up the netscape viewer and attempts to see the image indicated
using the command:
C:\Program Files\Netscape\Communicator\Program\netscape.exe c:\windows\TEMP\im701037.jpe

I get a failure message that netscape can't find the image indicated.
When I explore windows\temp, it isn't there.  It appears that pine is not
writing out the temp file image that the viewers need.

Is this a known problem, or am I just configured or doing it wrong.

yes, I've tried other viewers with the same results.

Chuck,

 This is a bug introduced in Pine4.32 which was fixed in version 4.33.
The only possible way to fix it in Pc-Pine is by upgrading to the newest
version.
