Dear Pine Developers: when one opens pine, the question: 'REQUEST
DOCUMENT?' comes up. when one hits return to that, the computer assumes 
'YES'. I suggest you make that default answer as 'NO'.

When i use pine, i usually keep on hitting carriage returns, until pine
shows me the new message. And, everytime your computer keeps on sending me
a new document. Thanks.

Sashi,
If you have seen the "Request document?" question more than once, there is
something wrong with your pine installation.  This might mean that Pine is
unable to update your ".pinerc" file, so you should check with your local
system support folks to figure out why that would be.  It might have to do
with filesystem permissions on your home directory, or disk quotas, or ??
Hard to tell from afar...
