One can also use backtics in a muttrc to surround a snippet of shell
script, thereby avoiding the need for keeping another shell script
file laying round (in three places, no less):
source `some-conditional-here`
You can do even better than that; the power of inline backticks is
significant. For example:
set from=`[ $HOST == 'unix' ] && echo -n unix || echo /n win32`@here.com
I use the same muttrc on a variety of OS's (MacOSX and Linux, mostly,
but also various BSDs and Solaris), and use exactly this kind of trick
to get them all working right.
