Pine is a MIME compliant, user friendly mail system. Until recently, Pine versions were released as free software. However, new restrictions were added to the latest release, so that it is no longer free software. The last free version of Pine is available via anonymous FTP from ftp.yggdrasil.com in the directory pub/dist/pine. We hope that people will continue maintaining a free version of Pine, starting from the last existing free version. If you have the skills, time and motivation to do substantial work on this project, please send mail to gnu@gnu.org.
