This suggests one of two things: either rsh or reverse DNS lookup
timeouts.

To excluse rsh timeouts, try adding /norsh to the mailbox name, e.g.
        {myserver.foo.com/norsh}INBOX
instead of
        {myserver.foo.com}INBOX

Pine also has a configuration option for rsh timeouts that, if set to 0,
will disable use of rsh entirely.
