    Pine by itself will not do this.  You have to use some other
program which will get the mail ahead of Pine and send your message.
*IF* you are on a Un*x-like system (I cannot speak for others) there
should be the 'vacation' program.  Enter 'man vacation' for
information.  Procmail can also to this for you.  It is probably harder
to set up but in return is more powerful than the simple vacation
program.
