How to erase already defined mailboxes ?
Hi, I'm having many mailboxes receiving mail. Many mailinglists, so I'm getting mail all the time. It can get quite disturbing. I was thinking that I would define list of core mailboxes and list of all mailboxes. At the morning I would switch on all mailboxes and read everything. Then I would switch to core and I wouldn't be disturbed by not so important mails. During day I could switch back and forward between those. Can I achieve this without restarting mutt, ie. can I empty the currently defined mailboxes ? http://www.mutt.org/doc/manual/manual-3.html#ss3.11 does not give much of a hint.

Search your local manual(.txt) for unmailboxes. http://www.mutt.org/doc/manual/manual-3.html#ss3.11 This seems to be for an old version of mutt without unmailboxes.

Create two textfiles that define your mailboxes, e.g. file 1 contains all important mailboxes and file 2 contains all mailboxes. So your file1 looks like this: , | unmailboxes * | mailboxes a b c d ` and file2 like this: , | unmailboxes * | mailboxes foo bar a b c d ` Now you can create a macro that will toggle sourcing either of these two files whenever you hit Escf , | macro index,pager \em enter-commandsource ~/.mutt/file1enter\ | enter-commandmacro index,pager \\ef \\eM \ | \toggle Mailboxview\enter Important mailboxes, use Escf to toggle | macro index,pager \eM enter-commandsource ~/.mutt/file2enter\ | enter-commandmacro index,pager \\ef \\em \ | \toggle Mailboxview\enter Important mailboes, use Escf to toggle | macro index,pager ESCf ESCm toggle Mailboxes: important/all ` Thinking further you could even dynamically generate the mailbox list in file1 and file2 like it is mentioned in the wiki: http://wiki.mutt.org/?ConfigTricks regards, Christian -- :wq!

Hi Kyle, On Sat, Mar 22, 2008 at 6:15 AM, Kyle Wheeler [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello all, After a bit of work, I've gotten a perl script that I think rivals URLView. I call it extract_url.pl, and it's here: http://www.memoryhole.net/~kyle/extract_url/ This is a Perl script that extracts URLs from correctly-encoded MIME email messages. This can be used either as a pre-parser for urlview, or to replace urlview entirely (as long as you have the Curses::UI module installed). Urlview is a great program, but has some deficiencies. In particular, it isn't particularly configurable, and cannot handle URLs that have been broken over several lines in format=flowed delsp=yes email messages. Also, urlview doesn't eliminate duplicate URLs. This perl script handles all of that. It also sanitizes URLs so that they can't break out of the command shell. Let me know what you think! If you have suggestions or have found a bug in it, let me know that too. I hope it helps someone. yes it does ;) -- Francis

[...] Yes. Create two textfiles that define your mailboxes, e.g. file 1 contains all important mailboxes and file 2 contains all mailboxes. So your file1 looks like this: [...] That's one possibility. I tend to write such things as comment's in muttrc and then parse the muttrc by perl script included at the end of muttrc in `...`. Just to have things in one file. , | macro index,pager \em enter-commandsource ~/.mutt/file1enter\ | enter-commandmacro index,pager \\ef \\eM \ | \toggle Mailboxview\enter Important mailboxes, use Escf to toggle | macro index,pager \eM enter-commandsource ~/.mutt/file2enter\ | enter-commandmacro index,pager \\ef \\em \ | \toggle Mailboxview\enter Important mailboes, use Escf to toggle | macro index,pager ESCf ESCm toggle Mailboxes: important/all ` I didn't realize that you can use enter-command like that.

I have to kill extract_url.pl to be able to continue with mutt. The same happens if I cat a message to extract_url in the commandline ... Not sure how I can find out what's going wrong exactly ... can you give me a little hint? Hmmm... throws out the list of URLs and freezes... Do you have the Curses::UI perl module installed? When it throws out the list of URLs, does the list look like the screenshots on the webpage, or does it just look like a long list of URLs (which would indicate that you don't have Curses::UI installed)? If the latter... it *should* simply exit after spitting out all the URLs. ~Kyle - -- Patriotism means to stand by the country.

A simple approach would be to use mail notification (aka mailnotify) to alert you (via tone or icon) to the fact that mail has come in to the core boxes. When you move the mouse pointer to the mailnotify icon, a temporary window opens, displaying the From header and the Subject line of each unread message. RLH
