+====== Configuring SMTP Server and Maildir IMAP ======
+By default, ''alpine'' uses a mail directory called ''mail'' in the user's home directory. Alpine's configuration file resides in the home directory at ''~/.pinerc''. The following settings can be used to enable ''TLS'' and the ''Maildir'' ''IMAP'' format for sending and receiving e-mail:
+<code>
+smtp-server=smtp.server.com/user=me/tls/novalidate-cert
+inbox-path={imap.server.com/user=me/ssl/novalidate-cert}INBOX
+</code>
+The ''smtp.server.com'' address has to point to an ''SMTP'' server, respectively ''imap.server.com'' to an ''IMAP'' server. The ''novalidate-cert'' setting is there if you have personally generated a certificate, which will make alpine skip the warning about a self-issued certificate. ''TLS'', respectively ''SSL'' can be turned off by removing them along with the ''/'' delimiters.
+An additional setting can be made:
+<code>
+feature-list=enable-incoming-folders
+</code>
+which will allow you to read any other folders that you may have created through ''IMAP''.
