I hope so... :^) [testing...] YUP! I used to use NS, now sylpheed(0.7.0 -- from http://www.sylpheed.org), as my main mailer and pine on the road while ssh'ed back to my desktop system. Whilst on the road, sylpheed is not running... leaves my mail in /var/spool/mail > Pine is my main mailer but, I would like to have a alternative to it! > Until now, every and each combination I tried just messed up the mail > boxes!!! ( I really want to use both, depending where I am!) I setup pine to not delete mail from the server, auto-bcc myself on compose to keep a copy and just read/reply/compose normally. When I get back to the desktop, sylpheed sucks all the messages out of /var/spool/mail and although pine set "Status: RO", sylpheed doesn't care... looks like new messages... just delete the messages from pine's inbox next time and I'm done. Works for me :^) though you should test the reverse since pine is your primary...
