  Seems you've fixed the fetchmail problem.  Now you need to tell your MUA
(Mail User Agent, in this case, Pine) that you are really
[EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of the name it gets from Unix.

  Assuming you are using a recent version of Pine, you can do this by going
into Setup -> Configuration, finding the entry "customized-hdrs", and adding a
"From: line.  If you ever use the "Reply-to" line, you'll want to add that as
a blank as well, otherwise Pine won't let you add it.  For example, here are
the values for my configuration:

        From: Benjamin Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
        Reply-to:

  There are other ways to do this (e.g., configuring sendmail to rewrite your
email headers for you), but this is by far the easiest.

  If you have Pine 4.10 or later, you may also be interested in the "Roles"
option under Setup -> Roles.

  Hope this helps!
