Are there any email clients available for textmode? I have netscape
working just fine in X (although i'm using 95 now...) with a smtp
server. I tried pine, but i could never get it to connect, so i zapped
it. I had "domainname: javanet.com" (forget the exact op) and "smtp
server: mail.javanet.com". However, this didn't help, and pine never
seemed to check with the server. If it helps, i have a dynamic ip
address at a dial-in account.
Are there alternative packages that might do the job out there?
thanks.
(also...an unrelated question. i recently installed the color_xterm
package and lost my Xaw3d scrollbars. any hints for how to get them
back?)
