Pine (Email Client)Pine is an email client: the University of Washington's "Program for Internet News & Email." Many people believe that Pine stood for "Pine is not Elm." However, its creator, Laurence Lundblade, insists this was never the case and that it started off simply as a word and not an acronym. There are both Unix and Windows versions of Pine. The Unix version is command line interface-based. Its user interface inspired Pico. Individuals associated with the university (students, faculty, staff, etc.) are also able to use WebPine, a version of Pine implemented as a web application. Webpine has several interesting characteristics: - Ease of use: at the cost of fewer advanced features compared to its UNIX and Windows counterparts - Accessibility: only requires a web browser and proper university credentials Pine and Pico are registered trademarks of the University of Washington.
