The good news is that configuration is simpler. macro pager "\ PYTHONPATH=~/lib/python /home/guru/bin/viewhtmlmsg -b konqueror -s\ " "view HTML (safe) in browser" Is basically enough from viewhtmlmsg's, errmh, view. Of course this is less flexible. You'd have to hard code your $wait_key settings in case you have it on by default and want it turned off for the macro etc. c -- Was heißt hier Dogma, ich bin Underdogma!

So, there was _nothing_ in the file "urlview.out"?
That is strange.
BTW, what is your shell? I'd expect urlview to use /bin/sh for its
command but if it uses your login shell and your login shell is unusual
there might be some trouble.

I use Cygwin ion a laptop for mail, with mutt of course, and:-
COMMAND "/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/firefox" %s
in my .urlview works fine, so you are certainly correct if firefox is on
your path.

The trick is that your replies must be stored in the same folder as the messages you're replying to. One way of doing this (on a NORMAL mail server) is to change the value of $record: folder-hook . 'set record=^' That will assure that the value of $record is whatever folder you're currently in. You can be more intelligent about it based on replies to lists or whatever... but that should work for you (it works for me!).

Hi all, I don't think this is supported but I'm going to ask it anyway. I would like to see my replies intercalated in threads. I use gmail imap server, and sent emails are correctly stored under "[Gmail]/Sent Mail" (this is the default gmail imap server behavior, no extra config is required, except that I set copy=no to avoid duplicated copies). "[Gmail]/Sent Mail" is a huge non-archivable (in the gmail sense) folder, which makes things even worse when I pretend to follow the natural flow of a thread without distractions.

Export HTML emails with images
Hey everyone, I work in a company using mainly HTML emails. They format their mails and from time to time insert screenshots and images to illustrate their point. While I obviously disagree with the process, I am not in position to change that right now. The text version generated by their thunderbirds is good 95% of the time and mutt serves me well. But I still receive this email from time to time with screenshots and formatting in a specific order. It is rare but I hate to juggle between firefox, mutt and an image viewer. I tried to search quickly for solutions to 'export' the mail with its image attachment so it can be viewed as-is in firefox, with the images at the right place. I tried to fiddle with 'metamail' but without success, 'uudecode' doesn't find anything... I can probably write a script to handle this kind of situation, but before I code a square wheel I'd like to know if someone out there ever accomplished this. Bertrand

i haven't used urlview since i started using xfce4's Terminal, which
recognises urls and makes them clickable, but back when i did, my .urlview
looked like this:
###
# Urlview configuration file.
# man urlview
#
# The defaults are shown here:
#
REGEXP (((https?|ftp|gopher)://|(mailto|file|news):)[^'
\t<>"]+|(www|web|w3)\.[-a-z0-9.]+)[^' \t.,;<>"\):]
COMMAND /home/joost/bin/urlhandler.sh %s
#
###
and the script urlhandler.sh looked like this:
==
#!/bin/bash
export PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:
if [ ! -z $DISPLAY ] ; then
# for some stupid reason, firefox -remote cannot handle the fact that
# there are commas in urls. therefore, we have to parse the url through
# sed and replace commas with their ascii code %2c:
exec firefox -remote "openURL($(echo $@|sed 's/,/%2c/g'),new-tab)"
else
TERM=linux
exec links "$@"
fi
==
however, given that firefox doesn't need the -remote option nor the command
openURL anymore, i'd try this in .urlview:
COMMAND firefox %s
my guess is that'll work just fine...
