I'm trying to get alpine to save my gmail imap and smtp passwords so I don't have to enter them each session. Numerous tutorials have said it's as easy as creating .pine-passfile in my home directory and selecting yes on the save password dialog following password entry. Unfortunately, I am not seeing this dialog. Any thoughts?

You need to recompile Alpine from ABS with the flag --with-passfile=.pine-passfile
Three steps:
1. sudo abs extra/alpine
2. cp -R /var/abs/extra/alpine ./
3. cd alpine and edit PKGBUILD and change --without-passfile to --with-passfile=.pine-passfile

Thanks this did the trick.
