quick alpine config question?

[Karen Lewellen]

Hi folks,
We have a member of the greater Toronto Linux Users group, who rather 
enjoys setting up email accounts,hosting allot of them personally.
He is new to alpine though, our test of roundcube was almost, but not 
quite successful due to sloppy JavaScript coding on the send button.
where he is stuck at the moment is how to get alpine to display imap 
things like the sent mail folder int he folders list.
Dreamhost is having the same problem with some of our new office email 
accounts.
is there a specific imap server config file, or a choice from the main 
settings s, config c options?
Also, what about the imap aspect of certificates? I recall there is a new 
way to create the aph thing google requires.
Thanks for ideas.
