[Alpine-info] imap setup in alpine 2.1?

[Karen Lewellen]

Hi folks,
Our access to alpine is via  the workspaces provided by  dreamhost.
Those workspaces are using  v2.1.
or at least that is what they shared.
I must  set up an imap configuration, according to dreamhost
That means providing as a hostname  imap.dreamhost.com
The username  and password associated  with the email in question, and 
that is all..at least to start.
Since dreamhost really does not understand how  alpine works, I am 
wondering under which setting this  information should be placed?
I searched for the  word imap in the configuration area of  settings, but 
while I found some items, they did not seem to match my needs.
I have no direct access to the alpine configuration files themselves, only 
what is managed via settings configuration.
Direction please? rather new at this.
Thanks,
Karen
