But I'm curious: how do folks handle reformatting text with multiple levels of quoting? For me, it just works. I think vim recognized the message I'm editing as an email (part of it's auto file type recognition, I imagine) so it also recognizes the typical quote characters... 'gqap' operates correctly on multi-level quotes in this mail mode. If you wonder how it all works: :help syntax :help formatting in vim should answer all your questions. /db

Re: replying to unwrapped messages with vi
Kevin, et al -- ...and then kevin lyda said... % ... % % i find fmt to be more standard across unicies. Actually, I've found the BSD fmt to be not equal to the GNU or [presumably ATT, since it works in Solaris, but that's funny since SunOS harkens back to BSD!] fmt, so the quick fix was to change my .exrc file to the BSD version when I changed servers but that then breaks whenever I pull my environment down to a new (typically Solaris or Linux) box. Rather than muck about with different exrc options, I'll just add fmt to my tree of installed software such as vim -- and since I'll be installing something, I'll just use the much more powerful par instead (haven't done that last step yet :-) But standard, I'm sorry to have found, it ain't.

inconsistent problems with tunnel and ssh
Hi, I'm trying to use 'set tunnel=ssh myhost /usr/bin/imapd' to access mail and I'm having mixed succes. It works from some hosts and not from others (mostly all debian unstable machines), it also works from localhost. Additionaly the the shell command ssh myhost /usr/bin/imapd always works from any of my test hosts. However from some hosts can't get in and the following messages are logged in /var/log/auth.log on the mail server: Oct 6 15:25:42 zenon sshd[32027]: Could not reverse map address 10.0.2.154.

But all ssh versions are the same in my tests. I even tried using tcpdump to get at the client-server conversation but realized the debian ssh doesn't support the none cipher.

But here there is the solution to declare the right charset when you attach the file: in compose menu use edit-type (^T by default), replace by the file's real charset, and refuse the proposed conversion. I wonder if there is a way to declare a different default charset for texts to be attached. This could be usefull in situations like, say: All your text files are Latin-1 (or US-Ascii), but you use Mutt on an UTF-8 terminal. So $charset=utf-8, you view and edit UTF-8 mails, but attach Latin-1 (or less) files. Someone knows? I tried to tweak ~/.mime.types for asc/txt extensions, but didn't succeed.

I'd appreciate it if some people could test the patch at http://www.cs.hmc.edu/~me/mutt/patch-1.5-me.color_eol.1 Also, if some people using SLang could also test it to make sure that it doesn't break anything, that would be great.

You might know this already, but a common spammer tactic is to include images in their html mails like img src=http://spam.server.com/Viktor_actually_read_this_spam.gif; that let them know that you actually read their spam, *if* you read the message in a graphical browser. From then on you can count on that address receiving the GSSSP (Gross Solar System Spam Product). Most times, yes. But the majority of people actually don't use console based mailers, but graphical ones. And the graphical ones usually show the HTML directly, that is, they don't spawn a browser. Think of Outlook or Eudora. Why does that matter? Each web bug is unique, so any request for it, from anywhere, anything, or anyone, still dooms the address the bug refers to. Because browser programs can (usually) be told to not load images in web pages; embedded browser windows, such as in Outlook and Eudora, don't have such options (I think - I haven't tested to see whether they would honor the full browser config). More annoying are the 1x1 pixel images that you can't even see, that do the same thing. I believe the term is web bug. I wasn't excluding them. Personally, I like the 1x1s better than the garish, bandwidth hogging, CPU killing, animated gifs.

This works, assuming you have File::Slurp and Email::Find installed.
The problem with this, though, is that it picks up Message-ID's.
This worked just as promised! Cleaning out the Message-IDs was no big
deal. Thanks a million Darren! Forgive my delay in responding, but I
just found time to do this today. Also, File::Slurp and Email::Find had
to be installed.
I piped the output to a file. The only thing I had to then do was to
prepend the word 'alias' and a dummy alias (I used numbers) before each
address, so as to make the list work with mutt. (I did this via a
spreadsheet) I am a COMPLETE Perl novice, so please forgive this
question, but how could the script be modified to automate this
prepending?
