ok thanks! i'll check it out. another reasonf or multiple accounts(a good
side effect really) is that i am getting some spam on this account and it
doesnt show up in my main account even tho my real email address(s) are
in my sig.

in terms of mail yeah im on debian all the time, but the mail program
needs to run from a console/telnet/ssh connection since i ssh to the
machine to read mail off of it. never really used emacs, but xemacs
..could use it when im at home but couldnt at work unless there is a
binary for IRIX 6.2(cant get a compiler working on it.

i have thios in my .bashrc :
export PATH=.:$PATH
and have a shellscript called pine in my homedir (would work for any
mail client) :
#!/bin/sh
export TERM=vt100
if [ -f $HOME/.sig ]
then
rm -f $HOME/sig
fi
cat $HOME/.signature > $HOME/.sig
echo `uptime` >> $HOME/.sig
/usr/bin/pine
you dont need to export the path but i dont like to hit ./pine
everytime..got that tip from linux.com's tuning section.
