-Alpine will be forced to read e-mail using IMAP. So the first time Alpine will ask for your SISSA **username** and **password**. If you wish to save the password, to avoid to enter it every time you run Alpine, answer ​ "​**Y**"​ to question ''​Preserve password on DISK for next login?''​. Your password will be **encrypted** and saved in the file **.alpine.passfile** in your home directory. +====== ​Email Clients Setup Guidelines ======
- +
-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 +
- +
-openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout $HOME/​.alpine-smime/​.pwd/​MasterPassword.key -out $HOME/​.alpine-smime/​.pwd/​MasterPassword.crt -days 10000 -nodes -subj "/C=IT/ST=Friuli Venezia Giulia/L=Trieste/O=SISSA/CN=$USER/​emailAddress=${USER}@sissa.it"​+
  
-touch $HOME/.alpine.passfile +Here you can find some brief guidelines about setting your email clientsWhen a ''​username''​ and a ''​password''​ are requested, use your SISSA credentials. The username **MUST** be always followed by **@sissa.it** domain.
