I've been a long time mutt user before switching to sup a few years ago. Mutt indeed lacks proper searching and indexing, but for this I found mairix [1], which with some scripting [2], .muttrc [3] configuration and a cronjob [4] can be integrated into mutt pretty seamless. I eventually switched to sup not mainly for of the indexing/searching, but because of the unique way sup keeps track of threads. Now that sup is pretty much dead I find myself poking around in the source more and more often, but maybe it is about time to switch back to mutt for more stability :( 1. http://www.rpcurnow.force9.co.uk/mairix/ 2. ~/bin/searchmail #!/bin/sh echo -n "Search for: " read expr echo $expr if [ "$expr" = "" ]; then clear mairix --help read exit fi mairix $expr 3. .muttrc macro index <esc>s !searchmail\nc=searched\n macro pager <esc>s !searchmail\nc=searched\n 4. crontab */10 * * * * ~/bin/mairix -- :wq ^X^Cy^K^X^C^C^C^C _______________________________________________ sup-talk mailing list sup-talk@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/sup-talk
