Besides Will's excellent suggestion, please also try the following:
In your /etc/pine.conf.fixed (or /etc/pine.conf or ~/.pinerc),
your smtp-server setting is probably blank; set it to localhost:
# List of SMTP servers for sending mail. If blank: Unix Pine uses sendmail.
smtp-server=localhost
Please let me know if it works. :) (I had this trouble a long time ago,
and took me a long time to figure out how to fix it, on my computer
anyway. :)
