   Heh, I just started playing with Pine after 10 or more years of not    
   touching it. I still dont like it :P~ I guess its OK but news is more of    
   an afterthought and it shows.

   Heading lists can be a killer with all that mumbo jumbo in there. I have    
   one that I especially like, I will posst it when I get home and you can    
   twaek it. It uses most of the available functionality and it is very    
   functional.
