Yes, the issue you are having you will always have it no matter what app
you use. You need a client-id and client-secret that is not in test mode.

I got the screen with the authorization info (links to google,
C command to enter code). It seems a ^C spoiled the
password file, because I had to enter passwords again, this deleted
perhaps also the invalid tokens, what made the screen to appear.

Is the solution to delete the password file (with the tokens)
in order to get the screen with the links?

Thanks
Rodrigo

Rodrigo,

once you get the screen with the link to google, do that again. Ignore
the part that tell you to get a client-id, etc., and proceed to follow the
link.

Recreating the password file willsend you to that screen, but you should
be sent to that screen even if you do not remove the password file. If you
are not being sent to that screen, can you run alpine with the command

alpine -d http

and look into there to see if you can identify the issue in the debug
file? If you need help, let me know.

I will do that the next time the problem appears.

Well, the procedure to authorize alpine is not worse than reading
mail with the browser.

Once a week reading mail with the browser is too much, but I think
would survive it. There are people that do it many times every day.
