When pine archives a month's worth of the fcc folder, does it simply save all 
mail in which is older than the first of the current month, or does it 
specifically extract only the mail sent in the previous month? I ask as we've 
recently switched from elm to pine and appear to have lost a large amount of 
sent email. The sent folder now contains only December mail, the 
sent-nov-1995 contains only November mail and of mail sent before November, 
there is no sign. (Before you ask, I have told pine to use the ~/Mail 
directory rather than ~/mail :-) ) It is entirely possible that someone has 
accidentally deleted the stuff (the account in question is a shared one), but 
I'd like to eliminate pine from the possible explanations.

Pine doesn't even check any of the messages.  It simply renames the
current sent-mail folder and creates a new empty one...
