  Thanks a lot for this tip. I found that in this process(you
don't have to choose all messages in the folder), Pine
also applies 'display filter' and saves message(s) in local
code(code set converted by display filter), which is very nice
for Korean(and possiblely Japanese and Chinese as well) mail
which uses different charset/encoding(7bit ISO-2022-KR) from
local charset(8bit EUC-KR=KSC 5601)(For details, see RFC 1557).
