Navigating the List of Messages Operations on the Current Message<BR>
By default, address book entries are sorted alphabetically on the full
name with distribution lists sorted to the end. Sorting can be changed by
resetting the address book sort rule in the Pine SETUP CONFIGURATION screen
--assuming you have "write" permission for the address book file.
<P>
Unlike the sorting of folders (which only changes presentation), sorting an
address book actually changes the file as it is kept on the computer. For
this reason you won't be able to sort a shared or system-wide address
book.
<H2>Adding New Entries</H2>
The easiest way to add new entries to your address book is to use the
"TakeAddr" command when viewing a message.
This command allows you to take addresses from the header and body of the
message and put them into your address book, without having to type
them in.
<P>
To add a new entry from within the address book screen, use the AddNew
(<!--chtml if pinemode="function_key"-->F9<!--chtml else-->"@"<!--chtml endif-->) command.
Use this command both for adding a simple alias and for adding a
distribution list.
<H2>Distribution Lists</H2>
Address book entries can be simple cases of aliases (a single nickname is linked
to a single email address) or distribution lists (a single nickname
pointing at more than one email address). Each distribution list has a
nickname, a full name and a list of addresses. The addresses may be
actual addresses or they may be other nicknames in your address book.
They may even refer to other distribution lists.
There's really no difference between a simple alias and a distribution list,
other than the number of addresses.
Therefore, you can turn a simple alias with one address into a distribution
list simply by adding more addresses.
To add entries to an existing list or alias
use the View/Update (<!--chtml if pinemode="function_key"-->F4<!--chtml else-->">"<!--chtml endif-->) command. Delete (<!--chtml if pinemode="function_key"-->F10<!--chtml else-->"D"<!--chtml endif-->) will delete
a single address from the list if the cursor is placed on the address;
it will delete the entire distribution list if the cursor is on the
nickname/fullname line. View/Update may also be used to delete addresses
from a list.
<P>
Address field entries in distribution lists may take any one of three
forms: a nickname existing in any of the defined address books, a normal
address of the form "jsmith@art.nowhere.edu", or a complete
fullname/address combination, e.g. "John Smith
<jsmith@art.nowhere.edu>".
<P>
Distribution lists in Pine address books can only be used by the person or
people who have access to that address book. They are not usually used to
implement discussion groups, but can be used to facilitate small
discussion groups if all the participants have access to the same shared
address book.
<H2>FCC and Comments</H2>
As mentioned above, each entry in the address book also has two other optional
fields, fcc and comments. The command to look at or change either of these
is the same View/Update command used for all of the fields (<!--chtml if pinemode="function_key"-->F4<!--chtml else-->">"<!--chtml endif-->). The
comments field is just for your own use. The fcc field overrides the
default fcc if this address is the first one on the To line. The WhereIs
command may be used to search for particular strings in the address book,
including fields which are not visible (like comment and fcc by default).
are available. The two selection commands allow you to mark a set of
address book entries as being selected. If you have more than one address
book, the selections may be in more than one of those address books.
The "Zoom" command will toggle between displaying only the selected
messages and all the messages. The "Apply" command allows you to
apply one of the regular address book commands to all of the selected
entries. Usually the address book commands apply to only the entry
highlighted by the cursor. The "Apply" command works with the
commands "ComposeTo", "Delete", "Print",
"Save", "Forward", and "Role".
<H2>Exporting and Forwarding Address book entries</H2>
Under the save option, when you use the Export (<!--chtml if pinemode="function_key"-->F11<!--chtml else-->"X"<!--chtml endif-->) command, the currently highlighted
address book entry is placed in a plain text file in your home directory
