i've used pine from day one of setting up my linux box. i'm not sure
where your problem lies...
set up your isp's pop or smtp server in the [S]etup [C]onfig for pine and
when you're connected just send the mail from pine (ctrl-x).
you can postpone messages in pine by typing ctrl-o in the compose message
screen (while you're offline) and retrieve them by saying yes when it
prompts as you go back into compose when you're logged on.
hope this helps,
heather
