Dear Encfs list, I have a problem with mutt, and I'm not sure whether it's ENCFS-related, since both mutt's temporary directory and the maildir directory are ENCFS-encrypted. I know that there's a warning that paranoia mode will not work with mutt, but I thought I had not chosen this mode at setup, though I'm not sure anymore.
More specifics about my setup: ~/.stuff is ENCFS-encrypted and decrypted to ~/stuff when this happens: encfsctl ~/.stuff Version 6 configuration; created by EncFS 1.4.2 (revision 20080813) Filesystem cipher: "ssl/aes", version 2:1:0 (using 2:1:1) Filename encoding: "nameio/block", version 3:0:0 (using 3:0:1) Key Size: 192 bits Block Size: 1024 bytes Each file contains 8 byte header with unique IV data. Filenames encoded using IV chaining mode. the directory ~/.mutt is a symlink: lrwxrwxrwx 1 mpromber mpromber 26 2009-06-16 12:40 .mutt -> /home/mpromber/stuff/.mutt so is the directory ~/maildir, which contains my maildirs: lrwxrwxrwx 1 mpromber mpromber 13 2009-03-25 20:21 maildir -> stuff/maildir Mutt sends messages just fine, and to do so, it creates files in ~/.mutt/tmp. But when I try to edit a message (hitting "e" in the index), I get: "could not create temporary folder: No such file or directory" However, mutt also creates a file of size zero in ~/.mutt/tmp, so it seems to be able to write to that folder just fine: -rw------- 1 mpromber mpromber 0 2009-06-16 13:10 mutt-lauren-1000-22110-0 Any ideas very welcome!
