Pine does support POP3 . To quote from the pine FAQ at
http://www.washington.edu/pine/QandA/FAQs.html
Pine for Unix can be configured to access the message INBOX on a
POP3 server using the folder definition syntax
{pop3server/pop3}INBOX
where pop3server is the hostname of the POP3 server. However, this
method accesses the POP server in quasi-online mode, not in offline
mode, which POP was designed for. Accessing the inbox on a POP3
server with Pine does not preserve changes to message flags (New,
Answered, Deleted, etc.) between sessions.
