I use pine as my regular client for MIT mail. Always have. I haven't
looked at what 'pine-imap' is doing, but I just tweaked my settings for
the latest version of pine, and while wandering through the config menus,
I got the definite idea that pine handles IMAP "right out of the box,"
it's just a settings change. Is this wrong?
