I'd like to take a look at the credentials from my alpine's passfile.
Some likely-looking openssl foo returned jibberish:
openssl smime -decrypt -inform pem -in <filename> -inkey
.alpine-smime/.pwd/MasterPassword.key
Is there a simple way to examine the contents please, or do I need to
start looking at the source code?
The passfile is obfuscated (a throw-back to the days before strong crypto
was available), and there is no standalone utility to de-obfuscate it.
The source is in alpine/imap.c, in xlate_in() and xlate_out().
Once, when I had a similar need, I took those routines and dropped them
more-or-less verbatim into perl, and it worked as expected. YMMV...
