Frank -- ...and then Bright, Frank said... % % Hi all,
Hello! % % I would like to bounce emails with a command line entry. Is there a way to % do this with mutt? I read through the manual of how it does thru the % interface but not how it can be done from the command line. You mean like one can mutt -s "subject" addr mutt -s "subj" -a "attachment" addr < /text/body/file and so on? That would be tricky because you don't have the mail at the command line. If you're really talking about bouncing (and some people think they are but they aren't!), which is really just injecting the message again with a new recipient given to the MTA, then you could just take the message and do that; forget about mutt. If the message is somewhere in a mailbox and you can programmatically find it (you *know* it's message number one when unsorted, or that it's the last message in the box, or whatever) then you could build a push command to go and find it and then bounce it wherever your input specifies; realistically, though, you're looking at some sort of wrapper script to take your destination and then construct a fake muttrc file with that info included in the push and then call mutt against that file and the proper folder. In short, it would probably be really challenging to do this from the command line and hardly worth it to not just fire up mutt and do it within mutt and then do a quick exit. Or have I completely misunderstood what you desire to do? % % Any help would be appreciated.
