Hi all,

   I got stuck, while trying to get the following to work:

   . I am able to receive mails by local_part filtering, this means,
     name-topic1@domain, name-topic2@domain, ... 
     are automatically forwarded to name@domain
   . Now when I reply to a mail I have received e.g. on the address
     name-topic1@domain, I want mutt to take this address and put it
     into the From field (plus some additional config changes 
         like http://www.acoustics.hut.fi/~mara/mutt/profiles.html)
   . All "-xxxxxx" suffixes are arbitrary and nowhere configured,
     filtering is done by pattern matching.
   . I use mutt (1.5.18 debian) currently


   How could I implement the filtering?

   I faild using message-hook, which works in principle, because I did not
   get the clue how to pass a matched string to the executed command.

   After that, I tried a workaround. The message-hook runs a script,
   which writes the desired mutt commands to tmp file. Which could be
   sourced after piping:

      message-hook . "push 
'<pipe-message>~/.mutt/message_hook.pl<enter><source>~/.mutt/message_hook.tmp<enter>'"
   
   The message pipe works, but I am not sure if <source> is the right syntax 
   here, because From is not changed. Sourcing it manually works.


   Are there other, more suited, ways to implement this?
   E.g something like pipe message to a script and the output of the script is
   piped automatically by mutt?


   Thanks for reading

   Bastian
