Pine

Alpine is an updated version of Pine that is under the Apache license. It is a drop-in replacement for Pine, and on UGCS pine is symlinked to alpine. Currently, alpine does not read maildirs- so you if you want to use it, you have to set it up to use IMAP.

Additional documentation can be found at http://wiki.alpinelinux.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page

Pine Configuration

Run pine, go to Setup, Config.

  • Set Inbox Path to {imap.ugcs.caltech.edu/user=USERNAME/ssl}INBOX.
  • Set SMTP server to mail.ugcs.caltech.edu/user=USERNAME/ssl
  • [optional] Set User Domain to ugcs.caltech.edu, ugcs.net, or ugcs.org so your mail comes from a short domain. By default it will come from SEVERNAME.ugcs.caltech.edu
  • You must have migrated your password in order to log in, if coming from UGCS 3.0
