Pine is a program.  It does not store any data for you.

If you're talking about your saved mail, in folders such as 
saved-messages, sent-mail, and other folders you have created: they are 
under ~/mail, so they would be included in the du command, and in the 
backup.

If you are talking about new mail, or any other mail stored in your inbox: 
that would not be included, as it is in /var/mail/klewellen.
