Rich and Evengi,

We do not currently have complete support for either ISC or SCO in the 
Pine distribution.  A few people have reported success getting it to 
work, but I have not seen any patches yet.  We only distribute the source 
via our anonymous ftp site, ftp.cac.washington.edu, but I believe that 
UUNET maintains an automatic mirror of our distribution.  The current 
version is Pine3.88.

Thanks for your interest!

Regarding ISC, I have sent patches in (to [email-masked]) for
versions 3.87 and 3.88.  The bulk of the work is the inclusion of
nonexistent files for ISC, with the remainder being minor changes to the
distribution.  I regret to say that I am still finding bugs on this 
platform.
