Hmm, AFAICT the Alpine(linux) codename was already mentioned
in this post from 23 August 2005:

  https://sourceforge.net/p/leaf/mailman/message/12731159/

whereas for Alpine(email), a post from 1 November 2006:

  https://web.archive.org/web/20070116190434/http://mailman1.u.washington.edu/pipermail/pine-info/2006-November/055008.html

refers to a UW web page stating that development of Alpine
started in "late 2005", which I would place post-August.

Cheers,
David.
