Question

Last Modified: Jul 29, 2005

How do I setup PINE to read my Kattare mail?
Answer

A lot of people used to log into prince to check their Kattare mail accounts. This was easy for us to maintain as long as prince was able to see all of the file servers. We can no longer support that, because we have file servers at two geographically seperate locations now. The answer is straight-forward; setup PINE for IMAP.

Step 1 - Entering Setup

Log into your ssh account on your webserver. Start 'pine'. It will by default take you to the Main Menu, if it doesn't, Hit 'M' to return to the main menu. From there hit 'S' to enter Setup.

Step 2 - Set up your Inbox

We now need to set up your inbox. Hit 'C' for Config, and scroll down to "inbox-path". Press 'Enter', and you will be prompted for "Name of Inbox server". Enter the following, replacing "abc123" with your Kattare username.

{mail.kattare.com/SSL/user=abc123/NoValidate-Cert}INBOX

Hit 'E' for Exit Setup, and 'Y' to commit changes.

Step 3 - Set up IMAP folders Top of page

Now, we need to set up access to your IMAP folders (other than your Inbox). By now, you will be back at the main menu. Hit 'S' to enter Setup, and then 'L' for Collection Lists. (This may not be displayed on the first page of Setup options if you have a small terminal, you can use Page Up or Page Down to scroll.)

Press 'Enter' and you will modify your "Mail" collection list. For "Server", enter the following, replacing "abc123" with your Kattare username.

mail.kattare.com/SSL/user=abc123/NoValidate-Cert

For "Path", enter the path to your IMAP folder tree. This should be:

~/mail

Press 'Ctrl-X' to save. You may be prompted to enter your IMAP server password at this point; after which, hit 'Y' to "Exit and save changes", and then 'E' to "Exit Setup".

Step 4 - all done!

Pine is now properly configured for IMAP use. It should work roughly the way it did before.
