This is probably not the place to discuss this, but what the hell.
"I love the smell of cordite and burnt feathers. I'm an Elk shoot me
it's Elk Season, I'm a Fiddler Crab ... uh sorry forgot my prozac.

Anyway I have been using pine for a while now and discovered a thing
about making attatchments in it (this assumes that we are using the same
type of pine; which is a big if in that screwy world that is UNIX)
1) In the "compose" window there is a line for attatchments if you don't
want to attatch something leave it blank.
2) Pine will NOT display any attatched files by default. It'll just put
a little message at the bottom of the screen for a second that says there
is one. The best way to check is to have it "display attatch." in the
read menu.

I hope this helps. Or at least convinces everyone that I really DO need
prozac.

regards
Bill
