BTW, an mv -f /tmp/sig.kc.$USER ~/.signature is required, before pine
is started.
But this script will use the same fortune cookie for all mails sent
from a pine session. I guess the way to have truly different cookies
for every mail sent out will need vim as the mail editor (with the
autocommand feature - see my last post). Maybe joe can do it. Emacs
most definitely can.
Let us learn to live with it - mutt is far superior in these matters. :-)
