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.
