imap servers w/ mutt

2002-07-07 Thread Kurt Hindenburg

 I plan on setting up an IMAP server for use with mutt.  This will be
 my first time working with an IMAP server.  Any suggestions on which
 server to use?  Is mutt still in 'development' with respect to IMAP?

Depends on the system hosting the IMAP server, but I would suspect that
anything that isn't M$ exchange would be an appropriate answer... :-)

I use mutt with an Openmail IMAP server at work, and a standard WU IMAP
server at home.  Both work fine.

 Is mutt still in 'development' with respect to IMAP?

No, IMAP is now in 1.4.0.  There are still some obscure bugs lying around
(some of them worked around in 1.4.0), but no more than any of the rest
of mutt.

Cygwin mutt barfs on spaces in set variable?

2002-07-07 Thread mutt

I am having a problem setting variables whose contents should contain (one
or more) spaces. I don't know if it is something I am doing wrong or what is
going on. Here is an example:
folder-hook mutt set from=Gary Jones my@emailaddress
to which mutt says Jones: unknown variable when I enter the folder. Is it
me? Is there a solution?

Here is some info which may or may not be useful:

$ mutt -v
Mutt 1.2.5i (2000-07-28)
[..]
System: CYGWIN_98-4.10 1.3.12(0.54/3/2) [using ncurses 5.2]
Compile options:
-DOMAIN
-DEBUG
-HOMESPOOL  -USE_SETGID  -USE_DOTLOCK  +USE_FCNTL  -USE_FLOCK
+USE_IMAP  -USE_GSS  +USE_SSL  +USE_POP  -HAVE_REGCOMP  +USE_GNU_REGEX
+HAVE_COLOR  +HAVE_PGP  +BUFFY_SIZE -EXACT_ADDRESS  +ENABLE_NLS

TIA.

Coo, that works fine! TVM! Why is the other way not acceptable? That seems to
be the way that the example .muttrcs have.

Because I suppose that the outer quotes are removed when parsing the
string for the folder-hook command.

1st case: you get: set from=Gary Jones my@emailaddress
2nd case: you get: set from='Gary Jones my@emailaddress'

No big difference.  I've had success with UW-IMAP (but I wouldn't
recommend it due to security concerns), Cyrus, Courier, and dkimap
(pretty easy to setup).

mutt not sending mail

2002-07-07 Thread Sam Carleton

I am new to mutt.  I have installed both mutt and qmail on my UNIX
machine.  When I when to send mail via mutt, it ended up in
~/Maildir/outbox/cur.  What am I doing wrong?

Sounds like maybe that's where Mutt was told to save copies of
outbound messages via the copy and record variables.

 What am I doing wrong?

Maybe you need to adjust the sendmail variable:

  6.3.198.  sendmail

  Type: path
  Default: /usr/sbin/sendmail -oem -oi

  Specifies the program and arguments used to deliver mail sent by Mutt.
  Mutt expects that the specified program interprets additional
  arguments as recipient addresses.

 Hmm, is that a trick question? You limit to mails from you

 again?

No, not a trick question. Just a different path of thought.
I (mis-)understood correspondence more like thread and not
as communication partner.

Look in /var/log/exim/mainlog and see what happened to the message.
Most likely your exim config is not right and the message is frozen.
(you can also see that by running 'mailq')

| Like I said, pine is on speaking terms with exim.

I've seen pine before; it (thinks it) can speak SMTP, so it is likely
not taking the same execution path through your system.  mutt does
what any sensible program would do an simply pipes into
/usr/sbin/sendmail.
