Yes, i have but partly: the NewsGroup reading was going fine but i
wasn't able to use my ~E-Mail~ InBound account because it was ~POP3~ and
`PC-Pine v3.96' wants ~IMAP~ or nothing, i'm afraid! `PineRC' reads as:
***********************************************************[ `PineRC' ]*
...
user-domain={my-isp's-domain.name}
...
nntp-server={nntpserver.domain.name}
...
news-collections=News *{nntpserver.domain.name/nntp}[a.news.group's.url]
...
############################## Preferences #############################
...
editor=edit.exe
...
newsrc-path=NEWSRC
...
news-spool-directory=NEWS
...
****************************************************************[ EOF ]*
More work still needs to be done. For example, it may very well be
possible that the `user-domain=' field shouldn't have curly braces! 8-o
Also, i haven't tried to use my ~E-Mail~ OutBound or ~SMTP~ account yet.
`NewsRC' looked as follows but i didn't create that file by myself:
***********************************************************[ `NewsRC' ]*
a.news.group's.url:
****************************************************************[ EOF ]*

See the character which was added at the end of the NewsGroup name?
JD> 3.96 was the last version that would do that...
Do that? Euh... At lot of mail came in since that "that". Sorry!

JD> ...still available from cac.washington.edu. I tried but had no luck
JD> getting that done.
I already had my copy but thanks for the suggestion anyway. :) It
may no help but i hope the few indications from above will get you a bit
nearer from whatever it was you weren't lucky enough to do... Have fun!
Salutations, 8-)
