Which Version of pine are you using?
 From pine help ((S)etup->(C)onfig->quell-flowed-text(mark and type ?)

PINE 4.61   HELP FOR SETUP CONFIGURATION 
 
 
              FEATURE: Quell-Flowed-Text
 
 

[snip]
Send message (not flowed)?
 
 

"Strip-Whitespace-Before-Send" will also turn off the sending of flowed 
text messages, but it differs in that it also trims all trailing white 
space from a message
before sending it.
 
 

If alternate editors are used extensively, be aware that a message will 
still be sent flowed if this feature is unset. In most cases this will 
be fine, but if the
editor has a "flowed text" mode, it would be best to use that.
