I have no problem accessing the remote server with pine, but what I want
to do is effectively copy the remote mailbox to a local file, and I
don't know how to do this with pine other than "one message at a time"
and without pine altering the headers (in particular, pine seems to
change the initial From line, replacing the sender's address with mine).

Thanks for the pointer to fetchmail. It seems that it would be ideal,
but it is not installed on my local server.
