I've been reviewing security alerts (re: other post on virus questions) and
I'm a little irked at how vulnerable pine (which I've used and like) and
sendmail seem to be.

Qmail looks like a satisfactory replacement for sendmail, but I'm not able
to figure out what's a good mail user agent, or a good configuration for it.
I don't care about HTML compatibility.  I just want to send and receive is
text and the occasional file attachment.  I also want the option to see a
list of all attachments with the option to save or toss (which is what keeps
Happy99.exe off my Win partition). 

I've reviewed the HOWTOs and the security notice on pine and I still can't
sort out how to turn off MIME and whether doing that would be a bad thing.

So that familiar sloshing sound is me once again floundering.
Clarifications, please?

Thanks in advance.
