Bug#2433: Pine postinst failure

[Dale Scheetz <dwarf@polaris.net>]

Thanks for the test Rob. (It worked on my machine, but I'm not surprised.
I have the file mentioned.)
I'll check it out and get back to you ASAP. (This was just a cut and
paste of the mailname portion of the post install so it probably fails
under these circumstances too)
