Alpine 1.1 Setup Problems

#1 08-15-2008, 12:31 AM

Hi,

i am a new user of Alpine 1.1 under windows. My problem is that i am
failing with the setup.Espically the "inbox path" My email is some
hosted exchange account 2007, which i can access trough any other
email client via imap very well. In the moment i am using Mullberry.

my imap and smtp server is "owa.pachosting.com"

My provider seems not to be able to give me this information.

So could somebody give me some help, or least maybe tell me more clear
which information i had to ask my email provider about.

thanks

imap server
smtp server
imap username
imap password
smtp username (probably none or the same)
smtp password (probably none or the same)
ssl or tls capability
inbox folder name/inbox path (probably "INBOX" or "inbox")

I suppose you already have most of this information as you're able to
login without any problem through other e-mail clients.

You need to add the username to the server name:
owa.pachosting.com/user=yourusername
