I'm not entirely sure, but sdf.org might offer a free alpine client through their ssh shell account.

From powershell I can ssh to my account and hitting "alpine" certainly brings up an e-mail client. Questions:

1.) is this alpine e-mail?
2.) if it's not alpine, what is the client?
3.) how would that be determined?

I'd like to import my own .pinerc file because I can't seem to install alpine on this surface tablet (which is a different topic). If sdf doesn't offer alpine access, are there other free servers? I could just use an amazon or other VPS, but seems overkill just for e-mail.

Does the output of "alpine -v" report that it's an alpine mail client?

the way sdf works is by a nominal validation of one dollar, or three from paypal, so I'll probably just do that. A three dollar membership gives, I think, sufficient privileges. If it doesn't, c'est la vie.

They're using mutt. There's no alias, but alpine seems to map to mutt.

A full sdf membership is I think $36, but typing "software arpa" to get a list doesn't show either pine or alpine.

I'll keep looking, probably there's some similar shell service that would work for that purpose.

Dear Nick,

according to

https://sdf.org/?software

both Alpine and neomutt (but not mutt) are part of the software in
sdf.org. I do not have an account with them, so I cannot check this,

Thank you.

Well, that's rotten. I understand that they don't have the alpine client
installed but they shouldn't map the well-known name of one client to
another.

SDF-EU (sdfeu.org) has alpine, and this is what the above command reports:

Alpine 2.21 (NEB 202 2017-01-01) built Sun Dec 23 23:05:06 UTC 2018 on odin

Software on SDF may differ from SDF-EU; membership system should be the same.
