Color in PINE email? -- No.

Pine may be able to handle ANSI codes (the things that give you color), but the mail system cannot. When you send mail with color codes through the internet, you can mess up the mail routers. If you want to send something in color, make it a separate file and then uuencode it, and send the uuencoded file.
