Subject: imap authentication time

I'm wondering what a normal authentication time would be for pine to
access an imap server that is located on the local network. What I mean
is, I've tried both rsh and ssh configurations within pine and on both
I've noticed that it doesn't ask for my username/password until approx 30+
seconds have gone by (timed it on 4 seperate occasions).
  I can make an ssh connection to the same machine in under a few seconds,
not counting how long it takes to enter the password). The newtork it self
appears to be quite responsive with a relatively small load

wetdream:~ # w
  9:46pm  up 9 days,  3:10,  1 user,  load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00
USER     TTY      FROM              LOGIN@   IDLE   JCPU   PCPU  WHAT
root     pts/0    daydream.smotrs.  9:46pm  0.00s  0.09s  0.02s  w

the system is running on a 100base-t network and with the exception of the
imap/pine situation is quite fast.

Try including a norsh flag. Here's my pine invocation as an example:

% pine -i -p {hostname/norsh/user=dmk}remote_pinerc
