Getting started with Pine

Deleting a folder

To delete a folder and all of the messages it contains:

  1. Press L (ListFldrs). You see the Folder List screen.

    If you see ``Select Here to See Expanded List'' on your screen, use the arrow keys to highlight the desired collection (for example, Folder-collection of mail) and press <Enter>.

    You see an expanded list of your folders in which your current folder is highlighted. (When you start Pine, the current folder is your INBOX. You cannot delete your INBOX.)

  2. Use the arrow keys to highlight the folder you wish to delete.

  3. To delete the entire folder of messages, press D(Delete). You are asked:
    Really delete ``folder''?
    

  4. Press y (yes) if you want to delete the folder and all of its messages. The folder disappears.

    Note that there is no way to undelete a deleted folder.
