By default, Pine automatically checks for new mail every 2.5 minutes
(150 seconds). This interval is settable per user as the
mail-check-interval configuration option (unless the
system manager choose to fix its value in the PINE.CONF-FIXED file).
You can also force a refresh of the folder by pressing the DOWN arrow
key four times at the last message of the Index screen or by pressing
CTRL/L. A folder is also refreshed whenever you expunge it. When you
force a check, and you have no new mail, Pine will report the last
message as new mail even though it is not new.
