Alright for/to/by/with me

In this sentence what would be the best answer? what about the rest? Can they be used in another sense?

A: Do you mind if I finish the milk?
B: Go ahead. It's alright......me.

Thanks

I always say It’s all right with me , but I hear by occasionally. The other prepositions don’t work at all in American English. Note the spelling of all right.

what about "To me, it's quite all right."

No, that would not be a natural reply to A’s request.
