How does choice of editor affect which headers are passed to it for editing by mutt? I did hit 'h' to show all the headers, and then 'e' to edit the message in $editor, and all headers were displayed and editable. If you hit 'e', without turning off header weeding, then $editor will only open up what you see. Does that work for anyone else? If I press 'e' with $editor set to vim, I see all headers. Having pressed 'h' before makes no difference. I have not experimented with other editors (emacs, joe, pico, etc) to see if there is any difference in behavior.

I thought I wasn't getting all the Received: lines and the initial From_ line, but if I scroll up in the editor, I see them.

Mutt and signing email
I have the following setting in my .muttrc and I am trying to sign the email in clear text before sending it out. set pgp_autosign=yes set pgp_list_secring_command=~/.gnupg/secring.gpg set pgp_list_pubring_command=~/.gnupg/pubring.gpg When I send myself a test message, Mutt prompts me for PGP password. I am using GPG and typed in the GPG password, then the following error message shows up, "Can't open PGP subprocess!: No such file or directory (errno = 2)" I am using the "Mutt-i, GnuPG and PGP Howto" document to sign my email. In the document (section 6.5), it recommends the use of the following command, set pgp_default_version=gpg When I insert this command in .muttrc, Mutt complains that the command doesn't exist. I do not see it in the Mutt manual either. Is there any other howto or manual that explains, how to sign the email and how to verify received email?

Re: Mutt and Japanese
Joss Winn wrote:- Well, Neil, I have good news for you! First, I am using the default version of Mutt that comes with SUSE 7.1 PPC (which has very good Japanese support in it for the first time). It is version 1.3.12i-0. I do not think it was patched for Japanese as the SUSE developer working on Japanese support has not had anything to do with Mutt. I'm using Debian's 1.3.17i which is lightly patched, if at all. The lines that worked for me are: setcharset="euc-jp" setsendcharset="us-ascii:iso-2022-jp" setrfc2047_parameters=yes I've no idea what the last one does or if it really is that important. Something to do with attachments? So, to summarise, I am running an English language environment, calling applications for Japanese with LANG=ja_JP app. I am using the above version of Mutt in a kterm with canna and kinput2. My Mutt folder menu has a 月 where the month column is, and all Japenese sent to me has clearly visible subject lines and body text. I use the alpha version of vim without any problems to compose messages. That's peculiar - it doesn't work for me. I see Japanese dates in the date column, unlike you. My LANG is ja_JP.EUC-JP, but even with just ja_JP I still get them. However, after saving my Japanese file in emacs as iso-2022-jp, when it returns to Mutt it is all screwed up - there are no Japanese characters, just garbage as the Subject and body. What do you have as your pager settings? Would you mind sending me your whole .muttrc? The really odd thing is that I can read old Japanese mails fine. I suspect Mutt is not treating the newly created mail as iso-2022-jp; but I have no idea why. With these applications I'm always a bit disappointed at how slowly the Japanese people get their patches in the mainstream, and their fixes always seem to be with just Japanese in mind, and not the "big picture" i.e. doing something general so that it can work for any language.

Still feeling out mutt, so if I'm retreading old issues, sorry. I had: set copy = yes set record = +Sent set folder = "~/nsmail" # converted from netscape today When I would send out mail, it would not save a copy in Sent. I saw an error message flash by and tracked it down to something along the lines of "File does not exist: /home/todd/Mail/Sent" Huh? I have the path set for ~/nsmail. I verified that the word "Mail" was nowhere to be found in any of my configuration files. During troubleshooting, I renamed nsmail to Mail and modified the appropriate directives in config files .muttrc and .procmailrc. Lo and behold, it works properly.
