That's the advantage of a mailing list. You get to choose. You can use whatever mail reader you want, using whatever protocol you want (imap or pop), giving you the choice of high bandwidth access or low bandwidth access.

Your outburst there makes me wonder if you understand how email works. "pine or imap" makes no sense at all. Pine can be used for either imap or pop, no there's no "or".

I stand corrected. When I used pine it did not support IMAP ;-)

IMAP and POP are both pretty high-bandwidth if you've got a bunch of mailing lists dumping into them, so it's hard to see where the choice is. You can always surf the web using lynx.
