Pine is a buggy program. I rewrote large portions of this program to make it more stable over low speed lines, (1200 bps over X.25!) and to implement a proprietary user interface to Inmarsat-C. My advice: Find a better mail reader! Sorry, the improvements do not belong to me, otherwise I would submit them to Pine's maintainers.
