It seems like when you use PINE with IMAP to access the remote server
it always asks for a user name. Is there a "user name" that means the
server itself? Is this a problem or a restriction of IMAP?

I have had the same problem, and have had no success either.  My
university uses Unix Pine, with global addressboooks, and have asked
them
the exact location, and have still had no success.

Hi,

not that I've tried it, but there seems to be an ANONYMOUS option for IMAP
access, somehting like

imap.server.name/anonymous

but the server should support this. Maybe this gives a possibility for the
global addressbook. I read about this in the Release notes, the Online
help or maybe the http://www.washington.edu/pine-resource.

Good Luck,

       -Michael
