Isn't pico there already?

Oh maybe what i am really interested is pine and it isen't there, and when i try to compile i get errors.

Otherwise use alpine. Which is the follower for Pine and also developed by Uni. of Washington. Pine is not developed anymore.
I have succesfully run alpine on Leopard.
You can find binaries (and source) here: http://www.washington.edu/alpine/acquire/

aliensub thank for the tip i downloaded the binary and moved into /usr/local/bin but it doesn't seem to run is there something i need to do after i download it besides expanding the .z file

Don't know the big difference between the two. Just toyed around with it. You can chec the story here: http://www.washington.edu/alpine/overview/story.html

Can't remember what I did to get mine running, but a quick googling revealed that another "os x" binary is availible through Apple: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macos...ailclient.html

I also found this guide which maybe can help you as well: http://www.madboa.com/geek/pine-macosx/
