Subject: Pine Setup Question

I have a question about PC-Pine. (So glad its pine and pico have been
ported to Winblows) My question is. Is it possable to setup a local inbox?
Currently my inbox is my default pop3 account. I would like to keep a
local copy of the mail rather than having to login into my pop3 to get my
mail. If not thats fine and I will just use it as is. As much as I like
pine and pico I am not overly knowledgeable about how much can be
configured with in it.

Thank you in advance for any information you are able to relay to me.

Do you want your 'local inbox' to be synchronized with your remote
inbox? If so, Pine doesn't do that but there are tools that you
can use to do that, some of which I list here:

If you want to snarf the remote inbox down to your 'local inbox',
Pine 4.55 and later can do that using the maildrop feature and
the #move namespace. I have some details and links here:

Hope that helps,
Nancy
