I see a lot of new users (especially ones who have used internet access through a unix shell which most likely used it) use pine. I started out using it but ended up switching to mutt. pine isn't as complex as mutt and slightly easier to configure. however it lacks some features such as native pgp support and some people won't use it since it's license is broken. If you don't have a problem editing a configuration file then mutt is a good choice. you may also want to look at elm...I can't comment on it having never used it On Fri, Apr 30, 2004 at 10:51:44PM -0400, Roy Nickelson wrote: > Hi > is mutt the best program to use for e-mail?
