I also like pine. I was just discussing this with my boss, as a
multi-platform replacement for, say, Netscape. For those who weren't
aware, pine DOES run on windows.
Unfortunately, it's lack of a GUI, while not bothering me in the
slightest, does tend to eliminate it as an enterprise-wide choice.
Now if we can just get some of those UW hackers to write a GUI
interface... :)
