Don't bother with pine, go for mutt. Mutt + screen rock my world.

In .bashrc (assuming, you're single user in your (v)server) :

mutt () {
        if ps x | grep [m]utt; then
                echo "You already have a mutt running - reattaching"
                screen -U -d -r mutt
                return 1;
        fi
        screen -U -S mutt mutt -f mbox
}

In .procmailrc (no MAILDIR, plain mbox):

SHELL=/bin/sh
DEFAULT=/home/eugen/mbox
LOGFILE=/home/eugen/procmail.log

:0fw
| /usr/bin/spamassassin -P
