By the way, Evan installed the Hardy SRU package that enables GSSAPI 
support in alpine onto amd64-test. (This support should have been there 
all along, but there was a packaging error upstream that he reported.) 
This is a non-Debathenified version, and I've configured the machine with 
a special version of debathena-alpine-config that just depends on stock 
Alpine and configures your inbox to be on *.po15.csail.mit.edu, which 
CNAMEs to po15.mail.mit.edu.

So in short, if you SSH to amd64-test and run alpine, you get your po15 
mail over krb5 via an unpatched alpine.
