But the INBOX in Alpine is always "stay open", isn't it? How could I 
change it so that it is closed when I leave it and re-opened again? I'd 
like to play with it, maybe I can at least get updates this way. I 
currently get updates only when Alpine loses its connection to the 
server and it reports "INBOX closed" (which is another problem, it 
doesn't attempt to re-connect, an option would be nice).
