Re: Group replying: set To: instead of Cc:
Hi there On 2014-10-13, Derek Martin wrote: I think your question is a little vague to get good answers snip/ Yes, this is it. So let me precise it. I don't talk about mailing lists but messages that come from one person to many. Suppose I've got the following simplified header where 'ME' is my address: header From: A To: B, ME /header Now I'd like to reply to A and B and I want those addresses to be both in the To: field. The new header would look something like this: header From: ME To: A, B /header At the moment when I press 'g' to group-reply, the header looks like: header From: ME To: A Cc: B /header I hope this helps clarify my problem. -- Greetings Elias

The new header would look something like this: header From: ME To: A, B /header Oddly enough, I just did a little testing, and sometimes I get the behavior you want, but sometimes I get the other behavior. I suspect this may have something to do with handling alternates, but I would really need to trace through the code to see what's going on here. That said, I believe the intended behavior is to put only the To addresses in the To: field, and everything else in the Cc: field. The difference between To: and Cc: is basically that if the author puts you in the To: field, the author expects that you have some action to take (including replying), whereas Cc: is for keeping people in the loop who are not intended to take any action. http://lifehacker.com/5990422/know-the-difference-between-to-and-cc-in-an-email I believe Mutt tries to preserve the sense of this conveyed in the original e-mail you are replying to.

This makes sense. Nevertheless I often want the behaviour I described because all recipients ``have to take action''. I believe Mutt tries to preserve the sense of this conveyed in the original e-mail you are replying to.

Re: Meeting invitations from Outlook 365 are not in iCalendar (.ics/.ical) format
I found a way to get Outlook 365 to send me meeting invitations in iCalendar (.ics) format. Note that I'm not an administrator and I didn't need to contact anyone to give me any privileges. The only caveat is that you need access to a Windows box. Once you change the settings via Windows, you can go back to using whatever OS you were using before. I did the following on my own as a normal user using Windows 7: 1. Download and install Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5 from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30653. 2. Download and install Windows Management Framework 4.0 (Windows6.1-KB2819745-x64-MultiPkg.msu) from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40855. 3. Run PowerShell as an administrator. 4. Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned 5. $UserCredential = Get-Credential * Enter your email address and password. 6. $Session = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange -ConnectionUri https://outlook.office365.com/powershell-liveid/ -Credential $UserCredential -Authentication Basic -AllowRedirection 7. $ImportResults = Import-PSSession $Session 8. Get-CASMailbox -identity YOUR@EMAIL.ADDRESS | Format-List 9. Set-CASMailbox -identity YOUR@EMAIL.ADDRESS -PopUseProtocolDefaults:$FALSE -ImapUseProtocolDefaults:$FALSE -PopForceICalForCalendarRetrievalOption:$TRUE -ImapForceICalForCalendarRetrievalOption:$TRUE 10. Remove-PSSession $Session 11. Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy Restricted Now, my mutt on Linux is receiving meeting invitations in iCalendar (.ics) format. :)
