Several months ago, there was a thread about writing a utility to generate a muttrc for a user. I took a stab at it (see <http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg25193.html> for my little perl script), and then... nothing happened. It's a beginning, though, and the script concentrates on things that it can get from the environment and simple questions, and all the settings it writes are related directly to the user: realname, email addresses (and alternates), postponed stuff. It's something to start from (if not too much else) if you decide to write something to do the job. It's a command line script, so it can be setup to run as part of an account creation process, for example (all the schools I've been to have a kind of self-service account creation mechanism, I'm assuming you have something similar). We can talk more about the script offlist if you're interested. (darren) -- Democracy is a form of government where you can say what you think, even if you don't think.
