I have been using Alpine/Pine for almost 13 years, and agree with most of your concerns. However, some of these can be controlled using the settings.

- Full name search in LDAP work correctly. Have you set name, surname, and given name attributes correctly in your LDAP setup.

- I exclusively used IMAP and have had no troubles with IMAP folder being fist in the list.

- Starting in the inbox (using key sequences) has always worked for me.

- Reply all does not include me in the Cc. Have you tried setting up alternate addresses field in the settings.

For HTML emails, I have set w3m as my html viewer. w3m works better with complex layouts in html.



- LDAP: it's a corp AD server, cn, name and sn are all set correctly from what I can tell.

- Maybe CentOS 6.3 ships with a bad build or lib that causes it to crash. I'm using alpine-2.02-3.el6.x86_64.

- Setting the alternate address fixed the replying to myself issue, thanks!

- I'll give w2m a shot too. ;-)

EDIT: I suspect the crashes when going into the mailbox are due to it requiring me to enter a password.
