Hash: SHA1
Sometimes, Alpine forgets the password for one of the accounts, that
should have been saved weeks or months ago. Like this morning, computer
resumes from hibernation and it asks for the password of one account.
Ctrl-C, asks again and again, maybe a dozen times.
Yesterday it worked fine, and pine has not been restarted.
What is going on?
This is sporadic, like once a month or several months.
Normally the only way out is to type the account password and tell it to
file for ever. This time I'll leave it in this status just in case someone
knows some trick to make it trust the password in storage or extract
information about why it is doing this.
