Alpine is a screen-oriented message-handling tool for news, and POP, IMAP,
|
|
and local e-mail. In its default configuration it offers a limited set of
|
|
functions geared toward the novice user, but it also has a large list of
|
|
optional "power-user" and personal-preference features.
|
|
|
|
Alpine's basic feature set includes:
|
|
* View, Save, Export, Delete, Print, Reply and Forward messages.
|
|
Compose messages in a simple editor with word-wrap and a
|
|
spelling checker. Messages may be postponed for later completion.
|
|
* Selection and management of message folders.
|
|
* Address book to keep a list of long or frequently-used
|
|
addresses. Personal distribution lists may be defined.
|
|
Addresses may be taken into the address book from incoming mail
|
|
without retyping them.
|
|
* New mail checking/notification occurs automatically (configurable).
|
|
* On-line, context-sensitive help screens.
|
|
|
|
Alpine supports MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions), an Internet
|
|
Standard for representing multipart and multimedia data in email.
