Schedule messages to be sent later
Hi, Is there some way to send messages at a particular time in the future? This could be done by just pipe-ing in the right parameters to the linux at command. How do I specify the subject,to,cc etc. in the pipe command? -- Regards, Ajeet

Re: Flagged messages with mairix
Hi,
I have attached a script (commit_mairix.py) that does this. You would need to
change the location of your search folder in this file.
It works only when both search folder and the mail folder are maildirs. If you
guys find a better solution, let me know ! BTW, it would be nice if there were
a sync-hook functionality, that would be triggered when a mailbox is synced.
I am using it as follows:
# General Settings
folder-hook . 'bind index,pager $ sync-mailbox'
folder-hook . 'bind index,pager q quit'
folder-hook . 'macro index,pager F1 enter-commandexec
change-folder\r=inbox-gmail\r View Gmail Inbox'
folder-hook . 'macro index,pager F5 enter-commandset
wait_key=noentershell-escapemairix F:fenterenter-commandset
wait_key=yesenterchange-folder=mairix-searchenter View Flagged
Messages'
# Settings for the search folder
folder-hook mairix-search 'macro index,pager $ enter-commandset
wait_key=noentersync-mailboxshell-escapecommit_mairix.py | tee -a
.commit_mairix.logenterenter-commandset wait_key=yesenter'
folder-hook mairix-search 'macro index q enter-commandset
wait_key=noentersync-mailboxshell-escapecommit_mairix.py | tee -a
.commit_mairix.logenterenter-commandset wait_key=yesenterquit'
folder-hook mairix-search 'macro index,pager F1 $enter-commandexec

corresponding changes should be visible in the original mailbox.
Does anyone know if there is some existing script that does this?
I am using maildirs everywhere, so just changing the filename of the
corresponding file should do it for me. In the case of mboxes though, you
would need to manipulate the X-Status header. So I guess writing a script
that does this should be fairly easy, but I dont want to reinvent the wheel.

How to resend message multiple times effectively
Hi all, I need to send the same message to multiple recipients. So what I am currently doing is invoking resend-message repeatedly and changing the to address. Is it possible to do this in one shot? As in fire multiple emails, one for each address containing the same body. Thanks -- Regards, Ajeet pgpItvKLlKwt1.pgp Description: PGP signature

I think that in certain situations, it pays to make your email seem personal. If I receive an email in which I am not any of the addresses (when I am Bcc'ed) or when I am one of a large number of recipients, it feels to me like a public broadcast. I guess its more of etiquette issue. -- Regards, Ajeet pgpyNCYutf2Ac.pgp Description: PGP signature

Re: Multiple email / folder problem
This is very likely a problem with the sidebar patch, which is not well-written. Try reproducing the problem without the patch applied. You are right. It is a sidebar issue. :-( Tested without the patch and there is no core dump for the same muttrc. Isn't something like the sidebar a useful feature though? Shouldn't it be included with mutt? I am guessing its one of the more popular patches. -- Regards, Ajeet pgpuiatkJIM03.pgp Description: PGP signature
Multiple email / folder problem
Hi All, I have been using mutt for a while now and I really like it. I have just joined this mailing list, so I do not know if this is the right place to post this, as my mutt is patched with the sidebar patch. For my own weird reasons, I want the sidebar to display different sets of email folders (for multiple accounts say). For this, I have a folder hook like so folder-hook . unmailboxes * folder-hook . mailboxes =M1 = M2 folder-hook M3 unmailboxes * folder-hook M3 mailboxes =M3 So, the two mailboxes M1 and M2 form one group(say all my email from the gmail account), while M3 is kept separately (say from hotmail). However, the above causes mutt to seg-fault. Any idea why this is so? Is this a sidebar related thing or a mutt issue? Thanks for your help. -- Regards, Ajeet pgp727gXD8Wrt.pgp Description: PGP signature
