The older versions of pine (I believe pre-4.0) didn't fiddle with the headers/mail files on the unix system. Thus, you could use pine (3.96 or earlier) for unix reading, and your dos app for dos reading. You'll need to check on the version of pine that started modifying the mail files to be sure, but I think this could work. The other thing is the mail program. It doesn't have nice features like pine, but it definitely only reads the mail file, and doesn't try to do anything with it. Unfortunately, it's a bit hard to use mail as a general mail client because of it's lack of features. I do use it when I need something in a hurry and don't feel like waiting or seeing what the client wants me to see, mail shows everything just as it is. Perhaps you could write some scripts using mail to do what you want.
