Beartooth, I think the reason you're lost is that your 
incoming-folders list is totally screwed up. The best way to fix 
it is to start over. In order to start over, I'm going to walk 
you through deleting your incoming-folders list.

Note that deleting the incoming-folders list does not delete any 
actual folder. It just deletes the list of 'nickname foldername' 
pairs.

1. Run 'pine' on titan.

2. Type 'MSC' (Main > Setup > Config).

3. Type '^W' (Where) and search for 'hidden configuration'

4. Use your down arrow key to move the focus to 
'incoming-folders'

5. For each of your incoming folders, type 'D' (Delete) followed 
by 'Y' (Yes)

6. After you have done this for each incoming folder, quit and 
restart pine.

7. Type 'ML' (Main > folder List)

8. Copy & paste the Incoming-Folders that are listed on that 
screen into a followup to this message.

Thank you,
Nancy
