Pine? I would only consider Pine for a server machine running
only in text mode. vi is a pain unless you happen to have been a 
*nix slave brought up using it. Emacs is a great operating system,
but is needs a better editor. 

Go ahead flame away, nano rulez!
Well maybe not rules, but at least a decent painless editor.
