mutt for irix? no,no I want the colors over telnet even if the program at
the other end doesn't support them. Like this:
The pine at the other end doesn't support colors. So just because I'm
telnetting from my Linux box, I want to be able to see colors. (maybe some
addon to my telnet program - client side parsing of telnet output eh?)
just upgrading the pine on Irix would be easier, probably, but what if one
does not have access to one's irix mailserver (which may not always run
pop and accept relay-domains)?

(I know I'm asking for something stupid, but what if I can't upgrade the
pine on the mailserver, nor modify the sendmail or install pop?)
