Does the way in which re-alpine is used differ?  If so, the Handbook can
be updated if/when alpine is replaced with re-alpine, that's not a
problem.  I suspect, based on this thread, it won't be necessary other
than noting the port is mail/re-alpine instead of mail/alpine.

The Documentation people would be happy to update the alpine section in
the Handbook in either case.  Though, not all doc people are subscribed
to ports@ - can someone ping us if/when re-alpine is in the tree as a
replacement?
