I use Pine 3.91 (or try to) with 2 different servers. The one from which 
I am sending this is a freenet, and I have no problems with Pine here. 
The other is a relatively new commercial server, and when I use Pine on 
it everything is highlighted, and I can't tell where I am.

The system administrator claims that the problem is at my end, but I'm
quite sure it isn't for 3 reasons. One is that Pine works great from my 
other server. Two is that the problem appears on 2 different comm 
programs I've tried. Three is that the same problem occurs regardless of 
whether I'm using my computer at home or the one at the office.

You may wonder why I don't just use the freenet all the time, but I get a 
busy signal about 95% of the time when I try to connect. I am going to be 
using e-mail for business purposes and I need to have both a reliable 
connection and an e-mail program (preferably Pine) which works right. 

Please send responses by mail. I'll read them at 2 a.m. when I'm able to 
connect.

I have seen this problem when the TERM environment variable was set to a
broken driver on a Linux box.  Changing to something else "fixed" the
problem...
