Re: problem with timestamps

2001-12-30 Thread Andy Spiegl

 Perhaps your patch should be included in the standard distribution as a
 user-configurable option?
Great idea.  I don't remember if I already suggested that or not.
But let's give it a try: :-)

 Can we make a user-configurable option out of it, please???

Thanks,
 Andy.

Timestamps feature

2001-12-30 Thread Felipe Contreras

Hi,

I really don't get this guys, why mutt whouldn't modify a timestamp after 
modifying a mbox! And the worst is that it rely on the timestamps to know 
when there are new msgs.

So tell me, is it normal to always get a N flag on all the mboxes until 
the timestamps are externally modified?

If this is called a feature then anyway that's not the way to implement 
it, why not --diable-stupid-timestamps-unmodify or something in the 
configure script.

PS. I don't remember to have seen this behavior before.



Getting mailing lists to work?

2001-12-30 Thread Nick Wilson

Hi everyone
for some reason I can't get mutt to 'list-reply'.
In my .muttrc I have a line --- subscribe mutt-users
but whenever I try to list reply it comes up with the gbnet address.
I'm having a few problems I really need some help with but unless i can sort 
this one I'm stumped!

if you can lend a hand I'd be most grateful

Regards

Nick

 mutt-1.0i works more suitable ;-) using charset from user locale (or may be
 $MM_CHARSET) while display attachments _without_ charset specified in
 `Content-Type:' field.
 do you know how to avoid such a behaviour of 1.2.5?

Upgrade to mutt 1.3.x, I couldn't get 1.2.x to support Cyrillic either.

snip

The reason mutt does this is that a number of new mail notifier programs
(such as xbiff and pals) use the modification time to detect the arrival
of new mail. If mutt did modify the mtime, then everytime you (for
example) deleted an email, you would be notified of having new mail,
which I'm sure would annoy you a great deal more.

I use:

subscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED]

instead of just mutt-users.

It works.

But it'll match the localpart mutt-users at any domain, so
[EMAIL PROTECTED] will show up as a listmessage, whilst
subscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] will match the whole address (making it
just as easy for some-spammer.com to spam you... poor example).

Sure, I know that, but Nick's problem was that the list-reply function
does not work.

But it should work even if he's subscribed only to mutt-users.

Maybe I should just stay out of this since I neither codee contributions
or control the source, but it seems that, while the behavior may seem
incorrect, that mutt probably ought to behave like most other mailers in
this respect *and* that such an option would simply be code bloat.

Why not either post and maintain your patch or write a full-featured
option version and then post and maintain that?  That seems to provide an
answer for both worlds...
