The alpine mail rpm indicates that it comes packaged with configuration files (/etc/pine*conf*). However, they aren't there. Possible?
Also, how did you get rid of the annoying alpine bug: a message that keeps flashing - [Folder vulnerable - directory /var/spool/mail must have 1777 protection]?
I *really* think you ought to ask in those repos, or alpine's mailing list. What's bothering me is it asserting that the "folder vulnerable", then saying that it needs to be world-read/writeable; ours are all 775.
Ok, then.
I find the "users" list on fedoraproject challenging.
The stated vulnerability is a known bug in alpine, and it has been there for a long time. Many lists have complaints about it, but it doesn't seem to get the attention of the developers/maintainers.
Likewise, ours are set to 775, inboxes set to 600 (that way dovecot doesn't complain).
