Actually I use Pine 3.91 for dos, which uses less memory and seems to crash less than 3.96. I have had it working for years as an imap mail client. I do not miss the extra's provided by 3.96. I use shroom to swap pine to xms memory when I drop to dos from within it. Works fine. I also created added scripts which convert mail I download using pine into Yarn/Soup format so I can read and process is with offline readers like readmail or yarn. There are a few tricks getting the pinerc file set up correct, but otherwise I have no trouble with Pine in Dos. I do believe that the old dos pine versions like 3.91 or 3.96 do not have the ability to download and read mail from a POP server. So it is only useful if your ISP has an imap mail server, which mine does. Later ``windowed'' version of pine could also fetch pop mail.
