I'm having a problem composing mail in a ssh session

I'm using vim to compose a message in pine

Just a suggestion, if nothing else helps quickly: try Mutt instead of Pine.
Mutt is more featureful, better supported & works well with Vim.
I tried mutt more than a year ago, when I didn't know that I could use
vim with pine, instead of the embedded pico. I don't really remember why
I didn't stick with mutt, but I know there were some reasons (colors?
difficult to configure? I think there was something else too).
Anyway, pine has proven good enough, till now. Once in a while, when
there's some mail with visual contents, I use thunderbird, through a ssh
tunnel.
Thanks.
