 +Alpine will be forced to read e-mail using IMAP. So the first time alpine will ask you //**your SISSA username**//​ and //**your SISSA password**//​ and if you wish to "​Preserve password ​on DISK for next login?"​ answer ​ "​**Y**" ​ if you want to save it (encrypted) so you will not have to enter your password anymore using AlpineYour password, encrypted, will be put in the file **.alpine.passfile** in your home directory. 
 + 
 +Since [[http://​alpine.x10host.com/​alpine/​info/​alpine.html|Alpine 2.10]], a personal SMIME certificate is used to [[http://​alpine.x10host.com/​alpine/​info/​encryptpwd.html|encrypt the password file]]. Alpine will ask the user to create a ''​master password'',​ which will unlock access to the password file in future access during the same Alpine session. 
 + 
 +To avoid being asked to enter the ''​master password''​ every time you start Alpine, while not recommended,​ you can create a SMIME certificate //without// any private key's password:

 +<​code>​ 
 +mkdir -p $HOME/​.alpine-smime/​public $HOME/​.alpine-smime/​.pwd $HOME/​.alpine-smime/​private $HOME/​.alpine-smime/​ca

-When you access to the subfolder //child//, you can create other subfolders with their subfolder name only, without //parent.// \\ 
-Mutt will set the right path for you.
