Using Pine on Remote

31 October, 2002 - GEST

Intro - You may want to configure PINE on remote to read your bigbro account.  That way, if you're away from Ithaca and don't have access to IMAP, you can still SSH to remote and then read your mail from there.

Setup -
	1.  Log into remote.
	2.  Edit the ".pinerc" file to point it to bigbro.  There's a sample file in this directory to help you.  Look for the lines,

	personal-name=Gil Toombes
	user-domain=bigbro.biophys.cornell.edu
	smtp-server=bigbro.biophys.cornell.edu
	inbox-path={bigbro.biophys.cornell.edu/user=toombes/ssl/novalidate-cert}
	folder-collections={bigbro.biophys.cornell.edu/user=toombes/ssl/novalidate-cert}Mail/[]
	address-book=bigbro {bigbro.biophys.cornell.edu/user=toombes/ssl/novalidate-cert}addressbk
	
	3.  Fire up PINE.  Check your addressbook, saved messages, sent mail etc.
