NAME
       rpdump - alpine remote data utility

SYNTAX
       rpdump [ -f ] -l Local_file -r Remote_folder

DESCRIPTION
       Rpdump  may be used to copy the actual data from remote Alpine configuration files or address
       books into a local file.  It is intended to be used by system administrators.  Regular  users
       should normally use the facilities provided within Alpine.

       Local_file  will  normally be a local temporary file.  Remote_folder is the IMAP folder being
       used as a remote Alpine configuration (with the help of Alpine's -P, -p, and -x  commands  or
       PINECONF,  PINERC,  and PINERCEX environment variables) or remote Alpine address book folder.
       A copy of the data from Remote_folder will be copied to Local_file.

       -f                  Force the dump even if the remote folder is in an unrecognized format.

       -l Local_file       The file on this system that is to be copied to.

       -r Remote_folder    A remote folder name to be copied from.  See the Alpine documentation for
                           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.
