changing folders
Hello, I've a question about changing folders. Suppose I've in my default mail directory `=' a subdirectory autosaves. To go to the mutt-users folder there I type something like c=auttab/mutab Ok. so far so good. Suppose now I want to go to another folder which is in the same `=autosaves' directory. If I type ctab I get the top `=' directory. What I'd like (and expect) is to be already in the `=autosaves' directory. Is this possible (and how) ? -- Johannes
Q: How do I get colours back?
Looks like I've screwed up somewhere ... :-) I was previously using version 1.0i and compiled and installed 1.2.4i. All was well, except that on a couple of occasions (mainly on changing folders) bits of the previous "screen" would get "left behind" on the next "screen". i.e. a subject from a message in a subfolder would stay in the same place on the screen when I moved to another folder ... I thought about this for a while, then I thought that perhaps it might be an Ncurses problem - I had version 4.2, so I downloaded, compiled and installed Ncurses 5.1. After recompiling Mutt with the new Ncurses, I have no colours! Mutt is definitely compiled with colour support: - Mutt 1.2.4i (2000-07-07) Copyright (C) 1996-2000 Michael R. Elkins and others.

The biggest problem people often quote is the lack of an MTA, since mutt does not talk directly to the MDA on the recipient machine via SMTP port 25, as I believe PINE does. It doesn't help that Win doesn't handle subshells gracefully and so things like PGP can be tricky as well, as I understand it. There's another problem: \r\n end-of-lines. Mutt doesn't use O_TEXT/O_BINARY, and gets confused when CygWin translates \r\n to \n thus unexpectedly reducing message size. At least I think that's why Mutt segfaults in the pager on Win32. I have posted stack traces on mutt-dev, but the developers have enough problems on Unix, and didn't have time to investigate Win32 issues.

What about replaceing the (rather draconian) "ignore *" with a list of

Re: colors for the indicator (more)
Johannes Zellner muttered: 1) color indicator red yellow pattern ^ I guess you mean index here. The object indicator does not need any pattern. And mutt doen't accept one. does not seem to work as expected. If I use for example [0-9]+ as pattern, all lines which contain a digit somehwere are completely highlighted -- I'd expect only the digits to be highlighted as it is the case when specifying patterns for the body. Right, the index highlighting is 'line based'. That's the way I would expext it to work :) How would you color a pattern like ~D or ~z if it wasn't so?

Re: Automatic mail archiving
If your on FreeBSD, syslog.conf can do that for you. I have mine set up to zip, rename, mv all my logs. It can be set to archive, delete, mail, files based on size or age. If your on Linux I'd look at a cron job.

Re: Automatic mail archiving
You can do this quiet easilt. There is a gzip compression patch for mailboxes that mutt reads just as any other mailbox. I can't recall teh site but it is off the mutt links page.
