Virtual Folders in mutt
Hi, I've been getting gradually more annoyed with the way my mail archives are organised recently, and, after playing with Evolution a little bit, got to thinking that vFolders might be the answer. So, I've been trying to figure out some way of doing the same sort of thing in mutt. First, has anyone done this before? Is there a FAQ or HOWTO I could be reading? What I'm thinking is basically having a huge morass of mail shoved in a directory somewhere, with a fancy index. Whenever I want to look at mail in there, I construct a query (Show me all mail with [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the From/To/Cc headers or Show me all mail with message-id blah) and then have mutt show me all the mail that matches that query as a virtual folder. The easiest way to do this seems like it'd be to write a script which does the query and constructs a mailbox in Maildir format with all the appropriate messages in it, then have mutt look at that Maildir. That much I can do. What I can't figure out is how to run that script and make mutt look at the output in a reasonably effective way. What I'd _like_ is to be able to write a macro that asks me: What email address: then runs change-folder`/home/aj/mail/bin/query-by-addr $result`. (I'd like to be able to have a few mutts doing queries at the same time, so the folder name needs to be determined somewhat dynamically to avoid clashes. I can't figure out how to do that with a macro either) I could avoid the prompting by having my script do that, but I can't figure out any way to have a macro change to a dynamically-determined folder. What would be ideal would be to have some sort of user variable that could be set, and some way of making a macro give a prompt then set one of those user variables. Then I could say: macro index Q[What email address:,email] \ :set user_foldername=`query-by-addr $email`enter \ change-folder$foldernameenter or something similar. But I can't do that, and I'm stumped as to what else I can do. Any ideas? Cheers, aj -- Anthony Towns [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://azure.humbug.org.au/~aj/ I don't speak for anyone save myself.

Can't properly help you there until I really know what you mean :-) I do know, though, that I've been itching for a real RDBMS back-end for mailboxes so that I can simultaneously get around the where do I put this? problem (eg, an offshoot mail to Bob really belongs in Alice's thread and therefore her mailbox) and the how do I avoid duplication? problem (sure, I could [somehow, as has been discussed in fcc-save-hook threads before] save it in Bob's and Alice's folders, but that's wasteful and it still doesn't point to Alice's from Bob's), but that's a long way off. I had been tinkering with an idea for approaching that by having one single, potentially huge, canonical Maildir containing every message, and then virtual Maildirs (which, BTW, need only the cur/ subdir) with symlinks that point into the canonical dir. The tricks are 1) organizing the fake mailboxes and keeping them updated (procmail-ish) and saving mail in them by actually writing symlinks and saving to the big one (mutt-ish).

How do I get this old subscriber address dropped? I'm currently getting two copies of every msg to the list and have been doing so for a few months. Some list servers use the From address in the _envelope_ to determine the sender's identity. If that doesn't match the address your are trying to unsubscribe, the list server will reject the request. I know at least one of the list servers I subscribe to works that way, but I don't remember if the mutt-users list server does. To get around this, you can set use_from and set your 'From:' address to your old subscriber address when you send your unsubscribe request.

duplicate aliases
I have changed some aliases by unaliasing them then 'a' to define them again. I noticed that in my mutt alias file, both are in there. Does mutt simply only take the last of duplicate aliases it finds in the alias file? I didn't see this in the manual. -Ken
pgp-hook extra steps / delay
When I have a pgp-hook set for a specific email address, and I write an email to that email address, and flag it to be encrypted, it: 1) asks me if I really want to encrypt to the key I told it to 2) searches for keys that match the key ID I told it to use (this really blows my mind) 3) after I select one of the IDs/subkeys from the list that all match the ID I specified in the pgp-hook, it presumably it passes the ID that I had originally set in the pgp-hook to gpg to finally do the encryption. Why waste my time with all of these steps instead of just skipping steps 1 and 2, and immediately encrypting with the key ID I specified in the pgp-hook, because I knew what I wanted ? Is there any (non-recoding) way to convince it to work this way ? -- The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. http://www.ChaosReigns.com
mutt waits indefinitely to retrieve public key for signed mails
hi, how do i prevent mutt from waiting indefinitely trying to recover the public keyfor a signed mail. it waits with a message Invoking PGP. I want the duration it waits to be small. also, I have enabled autoview for images using xv. but mutt opens the attachments before opening the mail. is there anyway I can make mutt open the mail and then open the attachments? also, could anyone tell me if the signed mail that I am sending has a good signature or bad signature? I mean I am not sure if the signed mails i send are properly signed or not. thanks rgds Rahul -- --- the bug stops here --- msg28241/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

Will Yardley spake thus: if you're using xterm, you probably want to set TERM to xterm-xfree86. For the record, I use xterm's exclusively on my system, and I've got $TERM set to xterm-color, and everything colors just great. Mutt, Vim, everything ;) Just a quick question for you - is the background on your xterm dark or light? I am asking because vim sets background correctly for me in the console, but fails to detect the black background in an xterm/konsole window. The same goes for mutt, it colorizes as though the background was light colored. generally it _cannot_ detect whether the background is light or dark. Hmmm... so what would the solution be in this case? Should I always use a dark background? I guess if I had to choose between a dark and a light background, I'd be more inclined to use a dark background. How would I tell mutt that the background will always be dark? Is there any way to switch between the colors for dark and light backgrounds while in the application? Thanks, Andy

I use set envelope_from for some IMO broken list setups like the apache lists, and this works fine.
