But since it works with Thunderbird, it can't be anything as simple as
"it's completely broken". I mean, I can't really fix anything since I've
no idea what might have got broken. mboxes work just fine with me.

If I'd have to guess it's that the "Mail/" prefix looks suspicious to
me. Do you have your mboxes in ~/Mail/ directory? Did you set
default_mail_env to point to ~/Mail or have you just set the "Mail/"
prefix in both Pine and Thunderbird?

Well, this brings to my mind one difference that I can think of: In rc11
default_mail_env has been renamed to mail_location. But default_mail_env
should work just as well, as long as you don't have mail_location set.
