Subject: pine hangs on Solaris2.4

We have sparc-sun-solaris2.4 with pine3.91. We tried both the
precompiled binaries and a locally compiled excecutable; the result is
the same:

After composing a message I type ^X, and pine hangs forever with the
message

Writing Fcc...

But pine hangs also when I postpone or save a message --- or any
operation we tried. We can have a limited use of pine though by
setting the suitable variables  to "" but then, of course, we cannot
save or postpone a message.

Any help is appreciated!

>save or postpone a message.

Something is wrong.  I have installed the binary pine from UWash on several
Solaris 2.3 and 2.4 machines.  Sorry I can't be more helpful.
