<p>Your shiny, new tilde.club account comes with an email account. <code>alpine</code> is a command-line email application to use it, as is <code>mutt</code>. Good old-fashioned <code>mail</code> works too, although it’s a little cryptic.</p>
<p><code>alpine</code> is menu driven, and the menus are self-explanatory; it’s surprisingly easy to learn, and surprisingly powerful when you want to customize it.</p>
<p>From the command line (after logged in via SSH), type: <code>pine</code> and <code>[return]</code> Follow instructions and use the menus at the bottom and top. (Note: When you see the ^ in front of the letter it means you need to use CTRL, otherwise just use the letter.)</p>
<h2id="non-cli-options">non-cli options</h2>
<p>alternatively, you can use the <ahref="https://webmail.tilde.club/">webmail</a> or standard imap/smtp.</p>
<p>some clients will automatically detect the right settings (tested with thunderbird).</p>
<p>connection settings: - imap.tilde.club port 993 with ssl - pop3.tilde.club port 995 with ssl - smtp.tilde.club port 587 with starttls</p>
<p>if you’d like your <spanclass="citation"data-cites="tilde.club">@tilde.club</span> mail forwarded elsewhere, you can put an email address in a file called <code>~/.forward</code></p>
<h2id="sieve-filtering">sieve filtering</h2>
<p>our dovecot configuration supports <ahref="http://sieve.info/">sieve</a> and <ahref="https://wiki1.dovecot.org/ManageSieve">managesieve</a>.</p>
<p>this means that you should put your scripts in a <code>~/sieve/</code> directory, symlink the active script to <code>~/.dovecot.sieve</code>, and make sure to compile it with <code>sievec ~/.dovecot.sieve</code>.</p>
<p>you can find some example sieve scripts <ahref="https://wiki.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve/Examples">here</a>.</p>
<p>alternately, you can use webmail’s <ahref="https://webmail.tilde.club/#/settings/filters">filter settings</a> to configure your filters.</p>
