True.  I used it for a few months when I first started with FreeBSD but
never liked it enough to find out more about it.  Within a few minutes
of finding Mutt, I was hooked and I've never moved to anything else.

But does Pine really compare to Mutt in terms of features?  (Perhaps
I should have put "compared to Mutt" on the end of my last sentence
above.)  I can't see anything in Pine's setup menu which correspond to
Mutt's send-hook or save-hook features for example (unless you want to
correct me).
