Subject: How about a /nosecure flag?

Hiya

I've got a request...  there's a /Secure flag I can use for IMAP
connections, etc.  Pine tries to use the secure method (if there is one -
in my case ssh with rimapd) for all mailboxes, meaning I have to wait for
it to time out on my primary mailbox (which I can't ssh to).  I'd like to
see a flag that tells Pine not to use the secure connection method
(/Insecure maybe?).

Cheers

Richard

To disable ssh authentication for a specific server, just add :143 to the
end of the hostname.  This tells Pine to use port 143, the standard IMAP
port, without ssh preauthentication.
