pine won't quit

[Cory Spitz]

Hey guys, sorry about the off topic post on pine.  Well, it looks
as though my problems have cleared up.  Today, pine is working
(I'm using it now) and my mail from last week was finally
delivered (I got doubles though!).  I think IS has some
explaining to do.  So after all of this I'm thinking about trying
out mutt soon :)

Bye,
-Cory
