Hi Dalton, there really isn't that much to the basic config for Pine. start it up in a console, at the main menu type an uppercase "S" for setup and then "C" for configure. all the items to be configured are listed there. unless you're doing something strange you shouldn't need to do anything with the place your inbox is, but you definately have to set the values for you MTA and SMTP whether you're doing that yourself, or using your ISP for that. try this link in your browser. Its a link to Google and will yield tons of good info on how to setup Pine for sending and recieving email. http://www.google.com/search?q=configuring+Pine&sa=Google -- Mark "If necessity is the mother of invention, then who's the father?" ----------------------------------------------------------- Paid for by Penguins against modern appliances(R) Linux User Since 1996 Powered by Mandrake Linux 8.2 & 9.0 ICQ# 27816299
