With that data, a configuration string for alpine can be concocted

incoming-folders=...

Thank you Carlos for taking the time to investigate. The only correction that I would make is that the above configuration needs to be

incoming-folders=...
    "fastmail" {imap.fastmail.com/ssl/user=ch...@cwm030.com}INBOX,

The effect of /tls is to do STARTTLS, which is normally done in port 143, not in port 993, which is where /ssl is set by default.

I had that doubt myself, yes. Thanks.

I also found the instructions on how to generate the required application password, and it must be one for email, not "contacts" nor "calendars" nor "files".
