## NAME
       rpload - alpine remote data utility

## SYNTAX
       **rpload** [ -f ] [ -s trimSize ] -t Type -l Local_file -r Remote_folder

## DESCRIPTION
       Rpload  may  be used to convert local Alpine configuration files or address books into remote
       configurations or address books.  It is intended to be used by system administrators.   Regu‐
       lar users should normally use the facilities provided within Alpine.

       Local_file  will usually be a user's alpine configuration file, and Remote_folder is the IMAP
       folder which will be used (with the help of Alpine's **-p**, **-P**, and  **-x**  commands  or  PINECONF,
       PINERC,  and  PINERCEX  environment  variables) as the user's remote configuration folder.  A
       copy of Local_file will be placed in the folder with the  correct  header  lines  to  satisfy
       Alpine.

### -f
                           will **delete** the contents of the folder so use it carefully.

### -s
                           trimsize  (one  is for the header message), then messages 2, 3, and so on
                           will be deleted until there are only one plus trimsize messages left.  If
                           this option is not set no trimming will be done.

### -t
                           Literal signatures contained within the remote pinerc should be used  in‐
                           stead.)

### -l

### -r
                           the syntax of a remote folder name.  One example is
                           {my.imap.server}remote_pinerc.

## DIAGNOSTICS
       Exit status is zero if all goes well, -1 otherwise.
