IMAP port number - can it be changed in mutt
I am running an IMAP server as a user (i.e. no root access) just for personal use. Thus I can't use the standard port number 143 as that is a system/unix port number. Is there a way of telling mutt to use a different port number for IMAP? Or will I have to patch it and rebuild? -- Chris Green ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Home: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Work: [EMAIL PROTECTED] WWW: http://www.isbd.co.uk/

Re: Troll and X-Troll
From: Lars Hecking [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am new on this list and also a new user of mutt. I haven't found anything in the 'manual.txt' about handling extra-headers like 'Troll' or 'X-Troll' ones. May be I haven't look at the right place ? 'Troll:' is not a legal RCF 822 header. User defined or eXtension headers must start with X-. That's the common impression, but it's wrong. The latest draft of the update to rfc 822 by the IETF wg makes no mention of the X-. It was intended to seperate public and private extensions, i.e. any x-* headers would never become standard. However, people used it for any non-standard header. This had the unfortuneate side-effect that headers like x-mailer that become common practice CAN'T be standardized, which is bad: one goal of standardization is to support common practice :-(. It's also lead to garbage like the use of BOTH Status and X-Status as common headers in mailboxes to track the read/etc. status of messages. Yuck. Sam

[newbie] slow on send?
Just starting with mutt and I am excited! Have spent nearly 3 days buried in the documentation and have a few questions I hope some one wouldn't mind answering. First of all when I send the message mutt sits there for over a minute before coming back with a 'mail sent' message. Why is this? Is there an asynchronous mode for this? I am not sure if my Linux box is set up correctly. I have 4 computers on my LAN which all have 192.168.0.xxx numbers. I don't have a fqdn so I have made something up. I connect to a IMAP server thro a multitech serial line proxyserver which sits on the LAN...which is set as the gateway on the linux box. I use fetchmail to get and deliver mail to the ISP. There is sendmail running and I am not an expert in sendmail but used linuxconf to configure the very basic info to update sendmail.rc. I use my_hdr to set my from field to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Can anything in this chain cause this delay? In any case it all seems to work. I also have pop mail server at my hosted domain which is now redirected to my local ISP. Am I better off picking up this mail through fetchmail? A couple of other usability questions I couldn't figure out. 1. When composing a new msg is there a way to bring up a picklist of pattern matched aliases? 2. I find myself inadvertently hitting keys..sometimes meant for a different console and I lose track of focus..and say ending up in the To: prompt when I hit 'm'. ANy way to escape out of these modal situations? Is there some way to define a global escape sequence which will get you out of any screen and bring you back to say the index screen? 3.Finally I can't seem to for the life of me get the following macro to work.. macro index f1 "!less /usr/doc/mutt-1.0.1i/manual.txt\n" "mutt manual" it works if I remove the and use f,1 keys. Why doesn't it bind to the 'f1' key? Ineed this help system at this stage of my learning process rather than having the manual in a seperate window.

Re: printing octet-stream attachments

However, if I print a message that includes a octet-stream attachment, the attachment also gets dumped to the printer. I believe there is a mailcap syntax to specify commands for printing. I also believe that Mutt pays attention to these. Perhaps adding a command "; print=/bin/true" will cause octet-stream attachments to be skipped? Or an alternate filter could be run? I tried this, but it didn't seem to make a difference. I had $implicit_autoview set; by unsetting it before printing, I can prevent dumping octet-stream attachments to the printer. So, why does $implicit_autoview affect printing? And why doesn't mutt pay attention to the mailcap "print" command? -- David Ellement

Basic(?) Aliasing
Hi, i've got a rather silly question, but i'm stumped ! i have a mutt.alias file which gets sourced in my .muttrc. when i do a tab on the To: prompt, i get a sorted list of all my aliases so far, so good Now, i take a look at the address they expand to, some of the adresses have the form "My name" [EMAIL PROTECTED] others, on the other hand have my other name [EMAIL PROTECTED] The strange thing is, in my mutt.alias the're all of the form alias aliasname "my name" [EMAIL PROTECTED] ^ ^ allways the quotes ... for example alias shoeke"Steffan Hoeke" [EMAIL PROTECTED] etc... How come they don't show whent i get the sorted alias list??? Am i missing something basic, or TIA, Steffan
