You could always check comp.mail.pine if you wanted to find
out who develops it.

That strikes me as basically unlikely.  Mark Crispin has
advanced the opinion on comp.mail.headers that, instead, all
of the newsreaders which append a "Newsgroups" header to
outgoing mail should be fixed to behave differently.  Thus,
I don't get the impression that we're going to get sane
behavior out of this MUA any time soon.
