Subject: [Imap-protocol] configuring pine to test an IMAP server?

Alpine 0.83 cannot be coaxed to build on my system (Mac OS X 10.4.8
with the latest code tools from Apple), so I downloaded the pine
binary distribution from the Pine site.  Now I've spent 20 minutes
looking through the documentation trying to figure out how to
configure Pine to speak to an IMAP server on a particular host/port
combo.  Unsuccessfully.  Not in the FAQ.  Not on the man page.

Anyone want to disclose the answer?

Bill
