Is there a way to get PC-Pine (v4.64) to download messages from Gmail to a USB stick (with various changing drive letters). I'm stuck with the HOME environment variable since everything seems to be relative to it and Pine wants to download everything to my hdd. Tried Google with no luck.
Descriptor?
Linky?...
Thx.

Wow, I just noticed I still had a signature, that's enough of that.
It's a nice email client with a text-based user interface:
http://www.washington.edu/pine/
...for the info.
And now that I know what it is, I must say
"No thanks".
(My current e-mail situation is quite acceptable as is...).

to use the application, so your thanks was not solicited.
nanook; This Pine application looks like a pretty small niche project from the University of Washington. Although I haven't installed or used it, I at least looked for some UW support to point the OP to. Unfortunately I do not find a forum or help link related to the OP's question.
Maybe some other helpful forum members can suggest a similar but more mainstream application the OP could use instead of Pine. In this way he would be able to get better support and probably more options.
Regards,
Pine may be "niche" on Windows, but it's pretty much the default commandline mail app on *nix and has been for a long time. I assume the people that like it on Windows are those that are used to using it on *nix.

Try this...type the word "pine" in Google and look at the first link. It's not linking to any webpage about a tree. Three out of the first four links point to pine the email client.

Hi,
first of all, open PC-Pine and change with the keys S L to the folder configuration dialog. Fill in the imap login data, for example:
Nickname: Mail
Server: imap.yourserver.com/user=1234567
Path:
View:
Save this configuration and return to the main menu. Then, change with the keys S C to the general configuration.
Set the folder directories to the remote directories, for example:
inbox-path: {imap.yourserver.com/user=1234567}inbox
default-saved-msg-folder: {imap.yourserver.com/user=1234567}savemail
and so on.
HTH
