Subject: Attach mails from different folders..

I'm working on PINE 4.33. If I have got a message in X folder and
another in Y is there any way that I can add/attach these two messages
below a third message that I freshly compose ?

My solution may be primitive (I use PINE 4.21), and, a clumsy method, but
what I do, is start the new message, press <CTRL-O> to postpone the
composition, go to a folder that includes a message that I want to
include in the message that I am composing, note the message number
within the folder, press C to compose, then answer Y to "Continue
postponed composition?", select the message that I have begun composing, 
go to the point within the composing message, where I want to insert the
existing message from the folder, then <CTRL-R> to read a file then
<CTRL-W> to read a message, then type in the message number within the
folder, when prompted, then repeat the process for any other message that
I want to include. When I am appending messages, to the message that I am
composing, I simply go to the end, and, separate the messages (the new
message, and any that I include), with lines of dots, and, insert the
appended messages, between the lines of dots.

Note: this is for inline inclusion of messages, not for including messages
as attachments.

This procedure shall only allow me take the message from my IMBOX and not
from any other mail folders created in PINE

Then it appears to me, that your version of PINE operates differently to
version 4.21, as I have succesfully used the method that I mentioned, many
times.

There also seems to be another issue with your version of PINE; I assume
that it included the message to which you were replying, in the signature,
with you prefixing the message to which you were replying, with your
response, as, when I replied to your message, the message to which you had
replied, appearing as it did after your signature, conspicuously
disappeared.

Strange...
