It runs, too, and reads my old mail and sends new mail just fine. One thing I can't seem to get it to do is read the Maildir. I've tried setting the inbox-path config variable to /home/kmactane/Maildir, ~/Maildir, ~/Maildir/, ./Maildir, ./Maildir/, ~/Maildir/new, and ~/Maildir/new/. For each one, I get the message "Can't open : not a selectable folder" when I try to open INBOX.

If Russ still wants to put it up on the qmail site, or if anybody else wants to check it out, the patched source is at: http://3.am/pine4.10.maildir.tar.gz It's hard to follow who did which patches, except that it looks like Mattias did the original patch for 3.96 and Ragnar did some mods to work with later versions (sorry if I missed somebody) Here is what I did (not neccessarily in this order): maildir980721.patch (updated for pine 4.02; not sure why it wasn't renamed) pine4.00-pine-maildir-patch (the comments here are a little confusing; I went ahead and defined the NO_MAILDIR_FIDDLE and NO_ABSOLUTE_PATHS options per mattias's advice for ISPs running IMAP4) pine4.10-c-client_directory_with_driver_patch pine4.10-folder_list_write.patch It builds and runs fine under FreeBSD 3.2 (-bsf) and Solaris 2.6 with gcc 2.8.1 (-gs5)
