[Alpine-info] help for web alpine pine.conf .pinerc

Are there any hint about the usage of web alpine in order to share as much
as possible of the standard .pinerc I use locally ?

I first tried copying it
pine -copy_pinerc .pinerc '{poseidon/ssl/user=lucio}remote_pinerc'

I did not reconfigure the pine.conf in the web alpine distribution.

As I said my .pinerc has many folder collections, and also some incoming
folders, but none of them are presently managed by imap (well. one
incoming folder is on a remote POP server but I do not care much about it)
Is that going to cause trouble ?

It looks like I cannot access such collections, other than my inbox.
Should I redefine them prefixing with an imap host name ?

And what is the best way to edit it ? Can I open the remote_pinerc file
(folder) with a normal editor ?

Also it looks like that I cannot view the content of any message in the
inbox (comes out empty with a message cannot access folder).

Also it looks like that viewing sorted by arrival with most recent last is
not honoured.

Any hint will be much appreciated.
