If you go into the Setup, there is a configuration item called
something like alternative-editor.  There you specify vi, emacs,
whatever floats your boat.  Then there is also an option to
implicitly invoke the alternative editor.  Turn that on also.
THEN whenever you go into the body of your message, pine saves
it to a temporary file and invokes your editor.

And I will refrain from commenting on vi vs. pico =)
