Well, I've managed to figure out the PPP thing. My mistake was attempting
to do kernel PPP, when the html docs provide support mostly for user PPP.
Having followed the html docs closely, and using a little common sense, I
have things working with user PPP.

Still, I can't seem to get Pine to retrieve my mail. I can't figure out
what my inbox path is, because it's on the ISPs system. This is a pine
question, so I'll ask the Univ. of WA about it. (They are my ISP anyway).

My advice to PPP newbies is: Go for the user PPP!
