Weird... Well I removed the ~/.pinepwd file, and then did "touch
~/.pinepwd"

and then I did pine -passfile ~

Pine launched, and asked for my password, I entered it in, and I got
the same CRAM-5 authorization failed after authentication error... it
keeps asking for the password, I continue putting it in and always after the 3rd
attempt, it works and my inbox is open.... But it appears that it is
not saving to the file, as ~/.pinepwd is still blank after doing that
process.
