- cylinder714 6y agoYup! Loved it, but I haven't tried Alpine, its successor, yet. I used it on a Windows 2000 box along with Vim 7.x and a copy of the excellent Par paragraph formatter (http://www.nicemice.net/par/ http://www.nicemice.net/par/) that someone had kindly ported to Windows. That combination made email on Windows tolerable for this Unix-Xenix hand. And before that, I supported Z-Mail on various platforms, but was the go-to guy for the terminal-based version, the fastest version we produced.
- taude 6y agoIf email were still my main communication at work (it's now Slack), I'd seriously look into Alpine, I had no idea that Pine went to live on in spirit.
