What is a good mail reader with _thread_ support (as in replies show
up right after the original message) similar to tin. I am using elm at
the moment, and as folders get bigger (> 50 messages) it becomes more
and more cumbersome (all messages are listed sequentially). X windows
support is nice, but is not necessarily needed. The ability to change
folders and also support for lockfiles on ALL mail folders would be
great.
While pine is not truly threaded, it allows for sorting by Subject:
header and meets your other criteria (except the optional X support).
Pine is distributed on the host ftp.cac.washington.edu
Hope this helps,
