Agreed, but I don't thing PINP is snappy. How about 
VITOP (Vitop Is To Overcome Pine)? :-)

BTW, as the development tools is Perl, IMHO it will not be a clone of pine
in strict sense. Different development tools wil lead to something quite
different (if successful), maybe much more than pine. :-)

There are other Perl simple email clients, maybe even fully working one.
Maybe should start with those:
Pail <http://pail.sourceforge.net/>
Flail <http://www.flail.org/>
Civilwar <http://sourceforge.net/projects/cwar>

Good luck!
