use the file locking that goes along with your system?! > 2) When I go to the index, I see this message: > /home/pbrannan/.mh_profile not found, mh format names disabled > How can I make it go away? well - are you using mh folders? > 3) When changing between mailboxes, I am constantly asked whether I > want to purge deleted messages.

"delete=no" means "never delete anything". check your logic! you want "delete=yes" which means "yes, delete those message and DONT ASK ME". > 4) When I go to the browser, the selected mailbox is > always the topmost one (INBOX). How can I make the > selected mailbox be the "current" mailbox? not possible - unless the current mailbox happens to be the first in the current ordering of mailboxes. > 5) When displaying messages from the ruby-talk mailing list, the > subjects are always of the form: > Re: [ruby-talk:12345] This is a subject > This makes the threaded view interesting, to say the least, whenever > someone's mail client doesn't set In-Reply-To:. Can I change how > these messages are sorted? no - the problem is the missing reference which is a problem with the $@#$ mailers. now, you *might* come up with a filter rule to use this info to fix the references but this won't help anyone else, will it? i suggest to hack the host of the offender and delete his mailer. > 6) When I try to postpone a message, I get: > Couldn't lock /users/pbrannan/postponed. > My home directory is on NFS, so this somewhat makes sense. > But how can I postpone messages in this case? fix the locking, pal! > 7) Can you point me toward any tips/tricks for using vim with mutt? > I've already got: > au BufEnter /tmp/mutt* set ai et list tw=72 > au BufEnter /tmp/mutt* set listchars=tab:>>,trail:. > au BufEnter /tmp/mutt* set comments=nb:> > (stolen shamelessly from someone else's .vimrc). > Is there anything else I should add? you can group this stuff and have it used with all files for which filetype mail applies.. easier to type, too. ;-) Sven -- Sven [EMAIL PROTECTED] | MUTT - a UNIX mailer with support for MUTT WOOF!,, Usenet: comp.mail.mutt | color+threading, IMAP,MIME+PGP+POP MUTT (__/'. http://www.mutt.org/ | Tips on using the editor VIM: MUTT /| |\ http://www.math.fu-berlin.de/~guckes/mutt/and.vim.html
