There is no relevant updates to the technology of email that would require
me to stop using pine to read it.
The changes aren't in SMTP or POP, but rather the client applications.
Clients today are predominately top posting.  Clients years ago used bottom
posting.

won't support VMware VIC.  Technology moves, keep up.

I'm sorry if this offends anyone, but the reality of the situation is
things change.
Actually this is your opinion, but why let the truth ruin a good argument
eh ;)
