Pine's awesome, but mutt's better. Given that I make that claim while still primarily using pine (the intention is there, but the switching cost needs to be handled at a convenient time), I'd like to say that I recognize that the problem is not the fault of mutt designers; rather, it's my own ingrained habits which need to be overcome by relearning or accomodated by configuring the .rc file. The designers of mutt had a bigger functionality set in mind, and were coming from different backgrounds, so it's excusable for them to not give such high priority to adopting pine interface features.
