How to label mails (the gmail way) ? Or "organize" mails in "folders" and
"subfolders" ? Ideally, I want IMAP to apply changes on the server (if I
move a M mail in a F folder from PC1, I would like to see M in F even if I
need to use another PC, say PC2.
Not sure how to do that...

what do you refer to, sorry? configuration of an IMAP server? or client
program? e.g. are you using Thuderbird?
Is the issue specific to Alpine Linux?
IMAP supports folders and you can move messages between them and there
exist server-side commands that a mail user agent may support or not.

I believe there might be some confusion going on here. `Alpine` is also the name of a MUA.

Not sure how to explain this as I am not confortable with all this
IMAP/SMTP machinery !...
I want everything I do, a given day with a given mail, to be visible from
"everywhere" (from any PC I could use) anytime (persistent on IMAP
server).
At that stage, my understanding is that I succeeded to configure alpine
this way (= close to what I want):
1. I have nothing in local (not-used or empty /home/user/mail directory)
=> S, L, first list : empty path
2. I use IMAP to "look for" mails (works OK)
=> S, L, first list, server field : added IMAP server address
3. I use SMTP to send mails (works OK)
=> S, C, SMTP : added SMTP server address
Now, say I receive this (new) mail: it's related to alpine, so I would
like to create a folder "ALP" (persistent on the IMAP server) and "move"
this mail into "ALP" for not to see it anymore in the INBOX (I prefer
to see only new mails in INBOX).
In gmail, I would have created a label "ALP", add "ALP" label to the mail,
and remove "INBOX" label from the mail: how to do the same with alpine ?
Not sure I am right here !... I'am precisely trying to understand

Hello Franck,
take a look at Sieve. The configuration of Sieve might be specific for
your IMAP server and mail client.
What IMAP server do you use? It's best to take a google search or ask on
the mailing list of that specific IMAP server software.
It's not a problem specific for the Alpine Linux operating system.
