I run my own Linux mail server with email accounts for different
purposes and access those accounts using the Linux version of Alpine
through ssh. At the beginning of every month I am asked if I want to
move sent and received mail to other folders to save space for each
account. Is there way of turning that feature off? I have looked in Main/Setup/Config but do not see any way of disabling this. Am I just missing it?

I did go to the end and even used ctl-w to search. Unfortunately in
both cases I was looking for terms such as “move” and “save”. It never occurred to me to look for “prune”.
In any case, I remmed out “pruned-folders=” and inserted “pruning-rule=no-no” in /etc/pine.conf. Based on starting pine in accounts I had not looked at previously this morning, it appears to be working. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction and taking
the time to present all the possible ways of solving my problem. It
is much appreciated.

I happened to read your post again and realized I probably did not have
to take out “pruned-folders=”, particularly when I found
"pruning-rule=" further down. Oh well, at least it works. Thanks
again.

No, I don't think you needed to do anything with "pruned-folders", as
it's meant for adding additional folders to be pruned in the same manner
as sent every month.
Glad you got it working as you wanted.
