The newsgroups don't show up due to being an 80x24 xterm, or you would see
them too. In Incoming Folders, I can hit 'a' and see the following:

Name of server to contain added folder :
^G Help
^C Cancel Ret Accept
I could then add another server with IMAP. You may have to change a
Main -> Setup -> Config option to get the above configuration. I've been
carrying around my .pinerc for 5 years now. I've attached it for your
viewing pleasure.

# Pine configuration file -- customize as needed.
#
# This file sets the configuration options used by Pine and PC-Pine. If you
# are using Pine on a Unix system, there may be a system-wide configuration
# file which sets the defaults for these variables. There are comments in
# this file to explain each variable, but if you have questions about
# specific settings see the section on configuration options in the Pine
# notes. On Unix, run pine -conf to see how system defaults have been set.
# For variables that accept multiple values, list elements are separated
# by commas. A line beginning with a space or tab is considered to be a
# continuation of the previous line. For a variable to be unset its value
# must be blank. To set a variable to the empty string its value should
# be "". You can override system defaults by setting a variable to the
# empty string. Switch variables are set to either "yes" or "no", and
# default to "no".
# Lines beginning with "#" are comments, and ignored by Pine.
