Pine Folders Information

[Greg Dean Schmitz <gschmitz@LUNA.CAS.USF.EDU>]

I get LM_NET as a digest so to save time/energy,
I will recap the questions concerning the Pine mail reader.

1) Can pine folders be deleted?

Yes! Pine folders can be deleted easily. :)

When you are at your folder list screen, pressing "D"
while highlighting a folder will lead to a confirmation
prompt, and then the DELETION of your file.

2)  Can Pine folders be transferred to disk?
Yes, they can.  It is possible to FTP a folder of mail
onto your disk.  In UNIX, mail folders are considered files
themselves, not directories, so they ARE transferrable using
FTP. (Assuming you can FTP things onto a disk) :)

I hope this helped.
