This is the output of Pine's help for the enable-mouse-in-xterm option:
FEATURE: enable-mouse-in-xterm
This feature controls whether or not an X terminal mouse can be used with
Pine. If set, and the $DISPLAY variable indicates that an X terminal is
being used, the left mouse button on the mouse can be used to select text
or commands.
Note: if this feature is set, the behavior of X terminal cut-and-paste is
also modified. It is necessary to hold the shift key down while clicking
left or middle mouse buttons for the normal xterm cut/paste operations.
