Change to MIME digest instead of plaintext, which encases each
message as a mime subpart of the one email you get; pine should treat
it almost like a folder of messages.  Then, "J" to jump, then the
number.  At least, that's how it works in normal folders.

I've never actually tried the above, so it might work, might not.
Try getting help while in MIME mode.
