Thanks to all
Many suggested below what I also had tried
mv /tmp /otmp
        mkdir /usr/users/tmp
        ln -s /usr/users/tmp /tmp
                                    
Larry Griffith <larry_at_garfield.wsc.mass.edu> had the most complete
and best solution see below


        I'm not sure whether Pine recognizes it, but you might try
defining
the environment variable TMPDIR as /usr/tmp:

(ksh) export TMPDIR=/usr/tmp in /etc/profile
(csh) setenv TMPDIR /usr/tmp in /etc/csh.login
(sh) TMPDIR=/usr/tmp;export TMPDIR in /etc/profile

        Some people on this list have recommended making /tmp a soft link
to /usr/tmp, but that can be nasty if /usr isn't mounted (e.g. single-user
mode).

thanks again to all
