Don't know if I can help you with Pine, but I'm curious what you are trying to do with 
your mail server.

Do you just want to be able to send mail out through your own computer?  Or do you 
plan on hosting email accounts?  If the first, then the default ssmtp that Gentoo 
installs is more than sufficient (I'm guessing you're on a Gentoo box from your 
earlier posts).  So would be default installs of Postfix and Sendmail.

If, on the other hand you want email to be sent TO your server for processing and 
delivery to local accounts, then yes, you will need Postfix/Sendmail/qmail/etc.  
However, there is a ton of configuration that has to happen in all these before you 
can actually receive mail to your local mailboxes.  Not to mention Domain name setup 
as well.

If you can give us some more info on what you are trying to do, then we can give you 
better advice on how to make it happen.  :)

Subject: [clug-talk] Postfix and pine


You may have read my earlier thread about gentoo and sendmail.  I have 
decided to ditch sendmail and go with postfix, but there is still one 
problem.  Postfix has successfully sent mail from mutt, but I prefer to 
use pine.  Pine is not working so well.  When I try to send the message, 
pine hangs.  At this point ^C and ^Z have no effect, forcing me to 
restart the computer.  Does anyone know what might be going on?

Thanks,

Andrew Graupe
