The above is, as someone else pointed out, obviously wrong. I wasn't thinking :) You don't need to match the .* at the end because the pattern doesn't need to match up to the end of the To line -- it will just match as much as you've specified, and only fail if something doesn't match. sorry about that... So, to summarize, something like this would be good: * ^To: .*about.com would work, but if you want to more careful...something like the following would be better: * ^TO_about.com the TO_ is expanded to a nice regex which matches the proper text before an address. man procmailrc and search for TO_. ttyl, -- Josh Huber | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | PGP signature

Everyone keeps saying this, and it still doesn't work. That nice regex doesn't match the text *in* an address.

Re: fuction of mutt, possible, pgp/gpg
I had same annoyance. I made following entry to my .muttrc to turn on/off GPG/PGP sig check to avoid this annoyance. macro index S ":toggle pgp_verify_sig\n" # define S to toggle GPG check If you find better method to deal with this, let me know by cc: Osamu On Wed, Feb 21, 2001 at 10:35:06PM -0800, Jason Helfman wrote: When you have a verified a pgp/gpg key once, is it necessary for mutt to ask you to verify it again? -- /Jason G Helfman -- + Osamu Aoki [EMAIL PROTECTED], GnuPG-key: 1024D/D5DE453D + + Fingerprint: 814E BD64 3288 40E7 E88E 3D92 C3F8 EA94 D5DE 453D + + === http://www.aokiconsulting.com === Cupertino, CA USA === +
Formatting weirdness..
Hi mutt-users! For some reason mutt is acting weird on me: If someone sends me a mail with the header From: "\\`hee" [EMAIL PROTECTED] or anything else with the double backslash in it, mutt does not seem to include this in the "To" field when replying, nor in the attribution. I realise the \ is an escape character in Unix, butt seems to me that it is also a valid character to use in this field (ASCII 92 dec if im not wrong) Why does mutt show this behaviour ? Grtz, Nils.
