Well, at work we have Exchange rammed down our throats, but at least they did
not disable IMAP, so I can continue to use pine. I used /usr/ucb/Mail for
years until I discovered that Sun's implemenataion had good features but SGIs
did not (it did not support refresh while reading mail). So I switched to
pine and use that on whatever platform I can. I chose my home ISP based on
whether or not I had login access so that I cound use pine. Web based mailers
(squirrel and one other that I do not recall) and I did not particularly like
them. But then I am still awaiting the re-emergence of monochrome monitors.
Except for web browsing, I require only black and white. As for OS, pine on
any flavor of unix is great, but the PC version is well.... PC and I could not
get my favorite editor (jove) integrated with it. pico is not jove and my
fingers have a mind of their own.
