1. Thank you Alice for your response, it was very helpful

2. Dominique, also thank you, and see inline.

3. macmpi: thank you as well; also thinking I should suggest (or supply)
an update to that Thunderbird guide which is linked from the sr.ht page
linked by the Alpine ML page.

I wondered about that, but parsed it too quickly when debugging my
problem (below). Sorry about that.

The issue that led the looking at 'isin':

When using an an answer file with setup-alpine, such as (note apk_repos
gets a substitution before this is used; issue also occurs with a
hand-crafted answers file):

==================

KEYMAPOPTS="us us"
HOSTNAMEOPTS="-n localhost"
INTERFACESOPTS="auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
"
DNSOPTS=""
TIMEZONEOPTS="-z America/Toronto"
PROXYOPTS="none"
APKREPOSOPTS="${apk_repos}"
SSHDOPTS="-c openssh"
NTPOPTS="-c chrony"
DISKOPTS="-m sys /dev/vda"

==================

The prompt for which NTP client to use still appears when using
`setup-alpine -f answers`

This calls setup-ntp with NTPOPTS as the parameter; perhaps the issue is
the quoting there. In any event, I've obviously got to do some more
complete troubleshooting, fix, and test thereof.

Regards,

Daniel

Also, 'Reply List' didn't work for me; is 'Reply All' preferred for
replies to the list, or modifying the reply (which defaults to the
individual replying, at least in my client) to the list?
