¿Why? I don't use neither Mutt nor pine, but I've tried to use them and I think both are difficult. If you already know Pine I supose that acquire Mutt skill isn't hard.
The "problem" with mutt is that if you are used to something else, you need to re-train yourself a bit. The correct way would be to addapt your muttrc. I however can imagine that can be a bit over the top if you are a new Mutt user. Especially the foldor-hook I found chalaging at first. What I do is I use 4 × wmbiff to show me where new mail arrives and they open with e.g. `aterm -geometry 80x79 -sb -T 'openSUSE' -name mutt -fade 50 -e mutt -f /home/houghi/Mail/opensuse` Or in short with `... -f mailboxX` and `... -f mailboxY`. Together with the use of procmail and mailrc it comes nice together. http://houghi.org/shots/mutt002.gif as how I see the mail. The most important thing is personalizing your muttrc. Once that is done, it is a great tool. I started with pine, but never could get the hang of it and could not get used to it after trying it out for 2 or 3 weeks. Mutt was something I could use directly. Oh well, as long as there is choice, to each his or her own. :-) houghi -- Nutze die Zeit.
