Due to the failure of the AIOE newsserver I was using, I moved to another news server which requires username and password.

Enter password of key <MasterPassword> to unlock password file

I tried touch .pine-passfile and now it offers to save the pwd on disk, but requires the generation of a master password, and asks all the times De facto this replaces an annoyance with another annoyance. I mean, I always have to give a pwd ... so just keep the original.

I have two files:

 rw------- 1 cer users     1814 Apr 12 11:49 .pinepw
-rw------- 1 cer users    55941 Apr 11 08:44 .pinerc

I suppose it is the same master password for email as for news. I just enter that master password, for email, just once. There is also a directory, but I can't find it or its name. Ah, ".alpine-smime/"
