Well, the reason I was looking to move away from pine: I'm probably most interested in setting up a Bayesian filter for now. I'm under the impression that, to be most effective, Bayesian filters need to have every mail you receive. Which means there is no more "delete," there is only "move to ham-pile" and "move to spam-pile." So I get bogofilter set up, go to reprogram the "D" key in pine, and humbug! I can't do that. (that's not really the expletive I used, but, hey) Anyways, thank you very much for your input. I'm gonna look at SquirrelMail, too (for different reasons). > Chip > > > > > At 29 1/2, I feel like an old fart, because I'm still using pine. I > > know, it's horrible of me.
