try "man mutt" or "man pine". I think you can create a .pine or .mutt file in your home directory that alters how the program works. For Pine, there might be a setting somewhere that says to use Postfix as it's server instead of Sendmail, or something that might point to the lockup issue. (Postfix is a drop in replacement for Sendmail, so anything that works with Sendmail should also work with Postfix without any changes).

The default install of Postfix is working great (sendmail was another story). I have a nagging feeling that pine is the problem, but mutt is just... so ugly! Is there any way to disable viewing ALL the headers with mutt?
