Re: Mutt 1.20. --GPG--
Hi, * Jan-Herbert Damm wrote: GPG asks my passphrase but doesn't accept it. What gpg setup did you use? contrib/gpg.rc? It's not gpg that's asking but mutt. So maybe mutt doesn't call gpg at all or in a wrong way... Ok, it works fine now. The problem was in the direction pointed to by Rocco: I aktually wasn't telling mutt at all how to call gpg. I copied the run commands from the samples/gpg.rc into my .muttrc with only slightly detailing the path to pgpewrap. I find that building my own mutt improved my understanding a lot because i was forced to figure out the workings in detail. With the custom mutt install of ubuntu on the other hand it seems that these workings are being hidden from the user, which can lead to selling him for dumb (as the literal translation of a german figure of speech would phrase it). greetings jan I guess I'm running into the same trap as just a few days ago: the ubuntu set up with the /etc/Muttrc.d/* files being sourced from /etc/Muttrc. Whereas my /opt/mutt/etc/Muttrc does something else. - $ locate gpg.rc /etc/Muttrc.d/gpg.rc /home/jan/SRC/mutt-1.5.20hg/contrib/gpg.rc /opt/mutt/share/doc/mutt/samples/gpg.rc /usr/share/doc/mutt/examples/gpg.rc - Let me fumble with this for a while. I am sure the answer resides in there somewhere. jan, and thanks! -- Bitte beachten Sie auch die Rückseite dieses Schreibens!

This an example to outline a proposed solution, I know, but how about
mkdtemp()? Hard-coded temporary file/directory names beg for trouble.
There are several problems with this. If the directory exists when
you do the mkdir, it fails with no clear course of action to take to
fix the failure; that seems like clearly a bug to me. Also, if some
process puts a file in mdir-mutt-delete before you rename it, the
rename will fail. In either case, Mutt didn't do what you told it to
do (remove the maildir when it's empty). You can't code stuff that
works sometimes in applications that other people are going to use...
I think you also get strange semantics if a messages is
delivered/appended to 'mdir' between the mkdir() and rename() calls?
Both calls would succeed but you would fail to remove
'mdir-mutt-delete'.
