If maildir support in alpine does not work like it does for mbox then I'll have to configure IMAP setings in pine.conf for alpine users. I must say that alpine is installed on mail server :). Although IMAP setting may work fine, it will prompt user for password initially when checking email and while sending first email. I'd like to avoid this by using #md or #mc.
You can configure Alpine to execute Dovecot's imap binary and talk to it. That makes it work nicely with Dovecot and won't prompt the user for a password. If you're using v1.x you can run "dovecot --exec-mail imap" and with v2.0 you just need to run "imap". I don't know specifically what this setting in Alpine is called.
