Hi,

to give some more infos:

>I guess the problem is the NFS mounted mail directory;

We used pine 3.9x on FreeBSD 2.2 for a year (or more) without problems. 
Our site uses a mix of Sun Sparcs and PC's, holding the home dirs on a Sun with SunOS 4.1.3 (NFS V2), and also holding all mails. On all clients we mount mail and home dir using NFS.


> You may want to try a newer Pine 4 version
We tested pine 4.0 and it also fails. Could not test 4.02 because of a permission denied on freebsd.org.

> Err.. well isn't it kind of bad that the machine crashes? :)
This indeed is very bad. But pine also managed to kill Solaris. :)
But i want to say here it worked on an old release of FreeBSD and do not work on a 3.0 beta. 

> Hmm ... it may mmap() it which can cause problems, so maybe and upgrade of 
-current will fix it.

I saw some problems with -current of the last 2-3 weeks. Which -current is stable enough? 
We have no problems with the version i installed, except pine.


Gerald
