Below is a quick start guide to show how to set up Alpine to use IMAP or
|
|
POP3 for accessing your email and SMTP for sending email.
|
|
|
|
IMAP
|
|
====
|
|
|
|
1. Make sure your email provider has IMAP support enabled (some
|
|
providers require you to explicitly enable IMAP support).
|
|
|
|
2. From alpine's main screen enter (S)etup, collection(L)ists, and
|
|
press (A) to add a new collection
|
|
|
|
3. Fill in the fields as follows:
|
|
|
|
Nickname: Example
|
|
Server: imap.example.com/qualifier/user=user@example.com
|
|
|
|
where:
|
|
- imap.example.com is the fully qualified server name
|
|
- qualifier is something like ssl or tls (add /novalidate-cert when
|
|
using a self-signed certificate)
|
|
- user@example.com is your email address
|
|
|
|
As a concrete example, here's how this would look for gmail:
|
|
imap.gmail.com/ssl/user=yourname@gmail.com
|
|
|
|
4. Press Ctrl-X to exit and save, enter your password when prompted and
|
|
(E)xit back to the main screen.
|
|
|
|
POP3
|
|
====
|
|
|
|
1. Follow the same instructions as above for IMAP, except for step 3
|
|
Use the following:
|
|
|
|
Nickname: Example
|
|
Server: pop.example.com:port/qualifier/user=username@example.com
|
|
|
|
where:
|
|
- pop.example.com is the fully qualified server name
|
|
- qualifier is something like pop3, ssl... (add /novalidate-cert
|
|
when using a self-signed certificate)
|
|
- user@example.com is your email address
|
|
|
|
As a concrete example, here's how this would look for gmail:
|
|
pop.gmail.com:995/novalidate-cert/user=yourname@gmail.com/pop3/ssl
|
|
|
|
SMTP
|
|
====
|
|
|
|
1. Make sure you are back at alpine's main screen.
|
|
|
|
2. Enter (S)etup, (C)onfig
|
|
|
|
3. Modify the setting for "SMTP Server (for sending)" as follows:
|
|
|
|
smtp.example.com:port/qualifier/user=user@example.com
|
|
|
|
where:
|
|
- smtp.example.com is the fully qualified server name
|
|
- port is the smtp server port
|
|
- qualifier is something like ssl or tls (add /novalidate-cert when
|
|
using a self-signed certificate)
|
|
- user@example.com is your email address
|
|
|
|
As a concrete example, here's how this would look for gmail:
|
|
smtp.gmail.com:587/tls/user=yourname@gmail.com
