[CALUG] pine problem - duplicate D/L's in GUI emailer

[Ken Jackson]

I also have a shell account at freeshell.org.  It's handy to be
able to log into a remote network to ping yourself--or someone
else.

For example, right now when I ping polarhome.com from here at home
(Verizon), if times out.  I can't reach it.  But I can ping it
with no problem from my freeshell.org account.  I haven't figured
that one out yet.
