I have a slightly different workaround here.  If you have root
privledges on the machine simply create another user account (in your case
"trzy" would be the new user).  Then nothing else needs to be reset in
pine.  I presume it would also be possible to edit the /etc/aliases file
and have the mail forwarded back to btrzynadlowski as well.  Somebody else
might want to tackle that though.
