I use pine to mail Chinese letters to a friend in American, 
although she uses pine also, but she said that she can only
see such things like =A4=B3=C5 ....  But my pine can see her
Chinese mail. Can someone tell me how to solve her problem?

It might be that a mail gateway somewhere is stripping out the MIME
version header, so that Pine does not recognize the message as having MIME
encoding.

Inspecting the (normally hidded) headers of a sample message, as it looks
upon arrival, would confirm or deny this hypothesis.
