Hi BTS :o) Try this: alpine -url mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I think you will find that alpine does the right thing with the email address. (BTW, try alpine --help to see where my suggestion came from.) Now, I can't figure out out to get pan to use alpine in the first place, but it sounds like you already know. If pan wants to send the string "mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]" to alpine, then you would use 'alpine -url %s' as the emailer preference. _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
