	Was this documentation on forwarding your pine account to another 
	account?

	Not that I know of.  From what I know you have to set your 
forwards on the other accounts that you have.  But if Pine is able to do 
this I would like to know as well.

I do not think pine can automatically forward the incoming mail. 

Anyway you can try the following

1) if your are in a unix machine:

   put a file with the name .forward in your home directory.  If this
file exists, sendmail redirects your mail to the list of recipients in
the .forward file.

   For example, if you has a .forward file containing:

        [email-masked]

     sendmail will redirect all incoming messages  to
     [email-masked]'', 

2) if you are in a vms machine use the 
  SET FORWARD command inside the mail utility. For example 
  SET FORWARD NEXUS::LARS will redirec your mail towards NEXUS::LARS.

I hope this help
