The problem at sdf had something to do with pine and mutt waiting until a 
mail went through before you could continue using them.  I did some 
reading and you were supposed to run sendmail -t but that could only be 
done as root (I tried in .pinerc).  My posting to bboard disappeared, in 
which I requested they fix this system-wide, but it is now fixed.

Someone else waited 3 min 29 for a mail to be sent with mutt.

In the meantime I experimented with splitvt but forgot the commands.  In 
theory I could set the screen to 1280 resolution (with aty28fb and fbset) 
and copy my mails from the top screen (reading with pine) to the bottom 
screen (where I replied with mailx) once I remembered how to invoke pico 
so I could import a file (or paste with splitvt using vi commands). 
Screen in two full screens would also have worked.

Rather a disappointment to have pine suddenly working again.
