Anyway, I changed dillo to Dillo both in Alpine's settings and on my PC, and links still open in Firefox. :-
This morning, suddenly, it does what I was trying to accomplish: Alpine on the remote machine, being read here under ssh, opens Dillo, not Firefox, when I click on "open link."
I added "GONE" instead of "SOLVED" to the subject line, because I'm not at all sure whether the change to upper case, or something I did after that, caused the welcome change. It might even be something earlier : both machines have logged out and back in, or rebooted, since my last attempts.
