Trouble configuring Pine
I am having trouble confiuring pine. I have downloaded it on 2 computers 1 with freebsd and the other fedora and I am getting the same result in both. Both say "folder does not exist","no folder to open". I went into set up and configured personal name,user-domain,smtp-server,inbox-path. I know I probally overlooked something basic but I can not seem to see it.

Figured it out myself
Well with a little research I found out what I was doing wrong and if any one has the same problem here it is . Don't play with anything else except the customized-hdrs. There for the time being place your e-mail address then press enter. Exit and agree to the change. that will set you up to recieve all your mail. As for the rest of the config I downloaded a whole mess of material to review at www.washington.edu/pine.
