Isn't pine still "non-free" anyway? Get your users to switch to mutt or squirrelmail. That's what I did.

Some of us *like* this "bug". I've got ssmtp setup on all my machines on my local network except for one central mail server running qmail, and that's only really necessary because I have some "operating systems"[1] which don't have the option of an MTA and need another computer to relay for them. All my accounts forward to my server on the 'net, which is again running qmail. [1] - "operating systems" = Windows 2000 and Apple Mac OS 9. I'm a programmer trapped in commercial hell. (try and guess which movie *that's* from). -- The more I use other operating systems, the more I like Debian GNU/Linux http://www.debian.org http://www.gnu.org http://www.linux.org
