Re; Gnupg Signing
Taking on the advice of the earlier message I was replied to on, I encrypted a message to a friend of mine. From the message I sent I thought that I would use his key to encrypt it then he would decrypt it with his secret key. When I used the encrypt function from the pgp-menu, I assume it used my key to my friend, but I received this back from stdin [deklown@gateway /tmp]$ mutt gpg: using secondary key 2022484D instead of primary key B87477EB gpg: This key probably belongs to the owner gpg: reading from `/tmp/mutt-gateway-18249-20' gpg: writing to `-' gpg: ELG-E/CAST5 encrypted for: 2022484D Joshua Line [EMAIL PROTECTED] still confused some...This key probably...? reading from /tmp ? writing to what? is this /dev/null ? or is this writing to memory that is still there as I type this? -- /helfman "At any given moment, you may find the ticket to the circus that has always beenin your possession."

index_format
I have the following entries in my .muttrc set date_format="%b %d %y" set index_format="%4C %Z %{%b %d %y} %-17.17F (%4l) %s" Only the month/day get displayed. Why is year (%y) not displayed? I tried several options mentioned in the date_format flag and in the strftime function. The index format does not change. I have even downloaded version 1.01 and installed it. Thet's not solving the problem either. Any ideas how to fix the index_format is much appreciated. TIA. Subba Rao [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://pws.prserv.net/truemax/ = Time is relative.

Thanks for the idea, but I already have that -- and that would only work once per muttrc reading anyway. My problem is that $folder gets reset to .../APD (just like I requested) but that I have to do something to invoke a hook -- and that's either change a folder or send (start) some mail -- to find a way to un-reset it. I was thinking about a macro set (assuming first finding an available key, but let's just assume ^f) like ^fa for .../APD and ^fu for .../UGA and so on and ^f or ^fd for default. It would be easier if mutt had a real scripting language that would let me specify - do something - wait for input - do something else but that's a while off. Now that I think about it, though, maybe I can use %o in a save-hook, or even in an fcc-hook, and never reset $folder. Something like fcc-save-hook 'some}long}expression' =APD/%o fcc-save-hook 'other|expression' =UGA/%o might do the trick... In fact, I think I'll send this to the whole list for comment and since I can't play to implement it right now :-) % % -- % David Ellement Thanks again! :-D -- David T-G * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.bigfoot.com/~davidtg/Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg!

Re: [Announce] mutt-1.1.9 is out - RELEASE CANDIDATE!
Hi, folks -- Now that I can build because I have a working compiler (sorry for the noise :-) I would like to look into my favorite feature patches. I use patch-0.00.sec.patchlist.7 patch-0.95.4.sec.expand_hook.1 patch-0.95.4.sec.reverse_reply.1 patch-0.95.sec.condense_pgp.1 patch-0.94.13.bj.current_shortcut.1 patch-0.95.3.bj.ed_mtime.1 patch-0.95.3i.bj.keyattach.1 patch-0.95.4.bj.status-time.1 patch-0.95.bj.hash_destroy.2 patch-0.95.bj.noquote_hdr_term.1 patch-0.95.3.hb.save_alias.1 patch-1.0.rr.compressed.2 patch-mail-1.0-y2k-tlr in my favorite cocktail. I should think that the y2k patch is now in the distro, and hope that current_shortcut is, and wonder if compressed folders will ever be included (my own pontifications to the contrary aside). Can the authors or maintainers of the patches let me know if any of them are obsoleted or need to be updated, and where to get them?

two mutt 1.1.9 problems(?) (was: [Announce] mutt-1.1.9 is out - RELEASE CANDIDATE!)
Hi *! I have a slight problem with Muttrc in the 1.1.9. In 1.0.1 and before, the Muttrc that got installed was automatically changed during install to contain the correct path to "manual.txt" according to --prefix. This no longer works for 1.1.9. Even after configuring with --prefix, the installed Muttrc still contains "/usr/local/." as path to manual.txt NEWS states that the mechanism to generate Muttrc has been changed, so maybe this was an oversight? Or did I miss something? Also, as far as I can gather, the charsets are no longer part of the tarball but are distributed separately ("charmaps-0.0"). Is this a development version specific thing or will this be a permanent change? I'm asking because we'd have to take this into account when providing the new RPMs for 1.2 when it comes out (we're currently running tests on 1.1.9). I couldn't find anything in NEWS or ChangeLog and a brief skim of my own mutt-devel archives came up empty, so I decided to ask...
