Pine works just fine on MacOS X. It is a full {Free|Net|Open}BSD
userland, with a Mach kernel, plus some Apple proprietary I/O
subsystems for things like the filesystem. The vast, vast majority
of *nix applications will compile and run without any changes
whatsoever on MacOS X.
So, saying "I use pine" is not necessarily mutually exclusive
with "Try Eudora".
