1. Put a decent subject on your mails.

2. State the OS you're working with.

3. State the version of pine you're working with.

Apart from that (and I presume you're using pine on linux):

1. Easy: If you have mtool, say this in the shell:

	mcopy a:<path\filename> ~/
	
2. A little trickier:
	
	mount /dev/fd0 /floppy  #provided fd0 is you floppy and /floppy
				exists, otherwise say
	mkdir /floppy 		#or alternately try /mnt instead, then say:
	
	cp /floppy/<filename> ~/

3. Impossible:

	If you're not Ruth and don't have mtools, talk to your sysadmin.
	
HTH,
Robin
