Hello,
The pine software runs on the server, you just install a packet driver
(see www.Crynwr.com) and IP telnet client (find NCSA Telnet) on the DOS
machines. No mail software runs on them under this scenario. You run the
mail software remotely, via telnet.
I don't remember where I got it, but the following rpm, will instantly
update your version of pine to maildir. Do a search for it.
pine-4_02-maildir-glibc_i386.rpm
Tah, eric
