While transferring my pine setup from redhat to gentoo, I wasn't able to get SMTP authorization to work. After figuring out that the useflag "passfile" was required to get pine to compile with SMTP password support, I wasn't able to get pine to read my .pine.pwd file. Using the string command on the pine executable, I determined that the default file name is .pinepw. Since it's not clear which is the most commonly used file name, please update gentoo pine documentation to reflect this. Reproducible: Always
You're right. I've added an elog note in pkg_postinst() which mentions this feature, along with the file name used. Thanks for pointing this out, and sorry for the trouble.
