The uphill battle for /alpine

Question

On this site, Alpine can refer to Alpine Linux, a Linux distribution, or to Alpine, an email client (an open source rewrite of Pine). Until a few minutes ago, both used the tag alpine. Out of 26 questions with the tag:

• 16 referred to the email client, and I left them tagged alpine;
• 10 referred to the distribution, and I retagged 8 to alpine-linux and removed the tag from the 2 others because the distribution was only incidental to the question.

While the email client has the majority, this seems to be changing quickly: out of 11 questions with the tag posted in 2016, 9 referred to the distribution. Should we rename the tag for the email client?

Answer 1

alpine-mail should work, providing alpine is removed so people can't inadvertently use it.
