Thanks for pointing that out! In fact, the patch is installed in the
version of Pine distributed by RedHat. (However, there is no documentation
of the feature, so nobody will use it.)

The problems with that are (1) I *want* a command-line interface; I use
MH all the time even though it's not my primary mail reader, and (2) I'd
like to see the job done right, once, and other mail reader authors simply
leverage that. (Pipe dream, I know--they'll insist on rolling their own,
whether it works as well or not...)
