I'm definitely am answering yes to expunging messages.  After I do that I
get an error message. It is something like:

pine error: inconsistent header size
pine exiting
aborted

After that I can't relog on for awhile. When I do open pine again the old
messages I thought I deleted are still there and are still tagged New.

Anything I can do to fix this?
