I don't think so; generally what you do if you're not connecting to the server directly by telnet (or better, ssh) is use fetchmail to fetch mail (so *that's* where the name comes from!) from the server and put it in your local spool. Then use whatever you want to read it--maybe you'll like mutt better than pine. > 2. Is there a battery monitor for fluxbox? Been a long time since I used flux, but it used to be able to put WindowMaker dockapps in the slit--that's where I'd look first. > > 3. Is there a simple, very stable, browser I can use? Dillo. Doesn't do javascript, flash, java, css, or even ssl, so you'll need to keep firefox or something around for a backup. It's the lightest, bestest gui browser out there. > > 4. I can't get gaim to show up in my menus, even with the menu editor. Can't help you there :) Todd
