 My guess would be that this means there is something wrong with the
 character encoding between the systems. But how would one correct
 this, apart from manually editing the header?

The problem is that only you can decide if the text is the subject or the
encoding. You could hack down a little script that does this correction and
use mutt:s pipe-command to correct it, but then this correction-program
could only make intelligent guesses nothing more. I've seen cases where the
subject has been encoded several times. See RFC2047 for details
http://rfc2047.x42.com/ of how this is encoded. 
I would have done it in Perl.

Lycka till.

Yes I know. I just would have liked to have an external hook too,

Multiple box search is also still of interest.

turning save-hook into fcc-save-hook

Re: problem using quoted printable encoding with gpg

[ Background: I was having trouble verifying PGP signatures within mutt. I
thought it might have been a mutt issue, and asked on the mutt list. Now
I think it is a courier issue, hence the Cc: to Sam Varshavchik ]

 Perhaps you would trigger a little more response if you could identify which
 copy of the message are you unable to verify:
 
 - a copy of the message received by the recipient?
 - a copy of the message you received as a cc:/bcc: copy?
 - a copy saved by mutt as the fcc copy?

Ok. I've done some more digging. After I send a signed message, I can
verify the fcc copy. However, I can't verify the cc: copy, and also,
the recipient can't verify the copy he receives. I've traced it down to
the following:

In my Fcc copy of the message, the message content with headers is as follows:

--Kj7319i9nmIyA2yE
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Disposition: inline
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
 
test
 
--=20
Anand
 
--Kj7319i9nmIyA2yE


In My cc: copy of the message, and in the recipient's copy, this is how
the message content looks:

--=_18425-975598711-1-2
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
Content-Disposition: inline
 
test
 
--=20
Anand
 
--=_18425-975598711-1-2

The boundary is different because the MTA has re-written
it. Also notice that the order of the Content-Disposition and the
Content-Transfer-Encoding headers is different. If I now manually edit
the Cc: copy (and the recipient also modifies his copy) to make the
order of the headers the same as the original message, THEN the message
signature verifies correctly.

Now I'm not an expert on MIME and PGP, so I don't know who's at fault
here. The author of the MTA I use (courier) says that MTAs are free to
rewrite headers as necessary, while obviously it's causing a problem
for me. I also realise that it's not really a mutt issue at all, so I
will not pursue this issue on the mutt list anymore.

Sam, any comments?

gpg signature path tracing during signature verification

I wrote a couple perl scripts that will display a signature path from your
key to the signer of an email, while verifying the signature of the email.
They can be found at http://www.chaosreigns.com/code/mutt-sigtrace/

The output looks like:

[-- PGP output follows (current time: Thu Nov 30 23:10:30 2000) --]

[-- End of PGP output --]

The lines between the begin and end lines, which do not start with "gpg:"
were added by mutt-sigtrace.

From this example, I signed Michael's key, who signed David's key, who
signed Joey's key, etc.

If you've already got gpg signature verification working, you just need to
download 4 files, and make a simple modification to 2 of mutt's veriables.

On my p2 233, it takes a maximum of 18 seconds to trace a signature path
the first time, and then it is stored in a cache.  So every time after
that, it is instantaneous.

Please let me know if you have any problems with these things.

I've been having way to much fun w/ gpg  perl lately.
