I will give it a try. However, Debian does not seem to provide a readymade Pine package due to perhaps some kind of license problem (I am not sure about that). So, maybe I will have to download & compile it from source. > There is a program called sSMTP that can be used instead of the external > MTA you are talking about. Not very feature rich, but it fills in for > sendmail on a workstation admirably. I tried to "apt-get install ssmtp" but apt told me it will remove Exim. Now, I like Mutt and will continue to use it. But I need to test this ssmtp for my friend who has shifted to Linux recently, liked the command line's elegance, but is passing through a transition period, and needs an all-purpose text based email client. (Presently he does not appreciate the idea of "one program for one job" idea.) So, is there any way I can keep Exim, but still use ssmtp for testing ? If I follow the ./configure , make, make install thing, will it interfere with the present Exim installation ?
