Thanks again everybody for your help.  

I dug a little deeper into /etc/login.conf and set the userid that pine
barfed on to 'root' for limits.  Pine will now open the file/folder in
question without barfing.  It has ~6000 messages (-questions since 2/1/98) 
and is approaching 22 meg.  I'm assuming it's not the best way to
determine the memory consumption of a given process/program, but according
to TOP, pine was using about ~30 meg while the file/folder in question was
'open'. 

As for the recommendations to find a better mail reader, I've been using
pine for about 2 years.  I'm very comfortable with the 'user interface'
and like the fact that it does not *require* X windows.  I do wish Pine
handled pgp a little better than it currently does.   I'll look into some
of the other mail programs.

Thanks again.
