They surely have a web page specifying what parameters are needed for 
any generic imap mail client. Do you have that link?

I found a possible page at 
<https://www.fastmail.help/hc/en-us/articles/1500000279921-IMAP-POP-and-SMTP>

   IMAP         imap.fastmail.com       Port 993
   POP  pop.fastmail.com        Port 995
   SMTP         smtp.fastmail.com       Port 465 (SSL) or 587 (STARTTLS)


What they do not say is what form take the expected login and password. 
There is, however, another link:

<https://www.fastmail.help/hc/en-us/articles/1500000278342-Server-names-and-ports>

where it says:

   You will need to get an app password to connect to these servers.
   You cannot use your regular Fastmail password.

and the configuration details are:

   IMAP

   Server       imap.fastmail.com
   Port         993
   SSL/TLS Encryption   Enabled, but not STARTTLS
   Username     Your Fastmail email address, including the domain.
   Password     Your app-specific password. You cannot use your regular 
Fastmail password.

   Root folder/IMAP path
     prefix     (leave blank)
   Folder separator     / (forward slash)


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

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


And give the specific application password when asked. If that fails, 
start alpine with imap debug options, which I don't remember offhand.
