I keep getting a message that another pine is accessing my inbox.  Then it
will only let me read my messages and not delete any.  Is this a security
problem?

You are running more than one instance of pine at the same time. Say: 

    ps ax | grep pine
and then 
    kill <PID>
to kill the other instances of pine. If you're unsure about those
commands, say "man ps" and "man kill".

No.
