Maybe but the real problem is that there is no replacment for it.
And no mutt is not a replacment. It is too different and too hard to
configure. That is one of the strengths of pine it is simple to setup and
use. Mutt is not intuitive at all. At least not for me.
Apparently there are other people who agree with me or pine would have died
a long time ago.
Just my $.02
