Alpine is a tool for reading, sending, and managing e-mail and
internet news (usenet) messages. It is the successor to Pine and
was developed by Computing & Communications at the University of
Washington.

Though originally designed for inexperienced email users,
Alpine supports many advanced features and a large number of
configuration and personal-preference options.

This package contains re-alpine, a continuation of alpine. It is
patched to add support for maildir style mailboxes.
