My suspicion is still on ssh over a flaky connection. 

With only two incidents, I don't really see any way of pinpointing the
program at fault. For all we know it could be a problem with vim,
period, not even involving pine. Or it could be a problem with pine,
regarless of which editor you use. 

In any case, if the problem is transcient and not-reproducible, I
think you can stop worring about it. But if you know that your ISP is
horrible, I would really suggest doing all work in a screen session
when working on the remote machine.

HTH.
