There's a small typo there:
6. Why not run Pine as setgid mail?
Pine was never designed to run with privileges, and to do so
introduces a significant security vulnerability. For example, if a
user suspends Pine, the resulting shell will have group privileges.
This is one example of why we strongly recommend against running Pine
