First, I assume your ran, "pine -h | grep -i passfile".
Nope, sorry. That's beyond me, and no one on c.m.p suggested it. I suspect
you're overestimating me vastly.
If you did, and there is a passfile argument, then at least you
know
that passfile support was compiled in.
I just did it and got :
[btth@localhost ~]$ pine -h | grep -i passfile
-passfile <fully_qualified_filename> Set the password file to something other
-nowrite_passfile Read from a passfile if there is one, but never offer to write a
password to the passfile
[btth@localhost ~]$
That's also beyond me -- especially inasmuch as there is no "than"
correlated with the "other" -- nor do I get the point of the "never"
Next, if the maintainer was nice, you should try going into
pine's help
section and seeing if the default passfile is documented.
The only helps I know for pine are either vast beyond imagining, or else
tied to specific items in M > S > C ; so I don't know where nor how you
mean me to look.
If not, then you should find the pine src file in the given
repository
and look in the spec file. It is probably listed there.
What's an src file? I don't hope ever to be competent with source code, if
it has something to do with that -- nor does pine, afaik, require me to be.
