 Hi,
 
 I'm almost certain these are but for the life of me I can't see 'em:
 
   1) How I do instruct mutt to recognize me as a
  variety of alternate email addresses so that I don't
  get copied back into Cc: lists on my own 'g' replies.
Look up the $alternates regex in the manual

For an example, this is what mine looks like
set alternates='(kode187\@(cyberspace.org|(tulsa|nwphx)?\.quik\.com))'

   2) Turn off a limited view. Right now I just pound
  in garbage to 'unlimit' it.
ESC-l

 Hope this isn't trying anyone's patience,
 Paul
No problem :-)

 hi,
 
 Is it possible to mark a message as Important or Urgent, so that the
 receiver notices this.
 I know this is common for other clients (Importance: or X-Priority:).
 It is of course possible to add this manually, but shouldn't this be an
 standard mail client feature? Or this not depreciated?

I've been wanting to ask this for a while... I guess its nothing that can't
be done with my_hdr, E on the compose menu (or $edit_headers) and a few
scoring rules. But it would be nice to press (say) I on the compose menu
which would bring up a choice of (1) High (2) Normal (3) Low in the status
bar. Would anyone be willing to hack this in?

Re: multiple mutts

 if ps -U $LOGNAME | grep realmutt  /dev/null 

Be careful about using grep to search the output of ps. For example

$ ps ax | grep lemming
16004 tty1 S  0:00 grep lemming

Y'see? Grep makes a match on its own process.

Just a note on your alternates regex... its rather wordy. Try:

set alternates = 
"dan@((xif|wwind|peeron)\.com|wamaltc\.org|giccs\.georgetown\.edu)|dboger@(wwind.com|.*\.bgu\.ac.il)"

 Send-hooks are only one reason why mutt sucks less. Say you send a

 # change signature for your boss  // ~C is a pattern operator - manual

 send-hook '~C [EMAIL PROTECTED]' "set signature=~/.sigs/offical.sig"
 
 Just as an example. Send-hooks are very powerful and you should start
 some reading about them. See the manual.

I was under the impression that send-hooks just needed an address, not a
pattern. This is a sample of what i have

send-hook '.'   source ~/.mutt/rcpt/default.rc
send-hook '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'source ~/.mutt/rcpt/dad.rc

These work... so who is right here?

Re: gpg warning: key not certified w/trusted sig ??

 Why do I get this warning as part of the PGP output of every single

 What have I set wrong?
Nothing is wrong with your mutt config -- what you need to do is use gpg to
'sign' the key with your own key, to indicate that you know this key belongs
to who it claims to belong to.

Normaly you would do this using gpg --sign-key userid

I have the following macro defined - it is a disgusting hack but I think its
neat. Try it:

#
macro pager \Cp  \
"|gpg --list-pack|head -n1|cut -b43-|xargs gpg --sign-key\nexitdisplay-message" 
"Attempt to sign key"

True. I should have cautioned people about that. The whole point of the
warning is that it is a warning - although those two lines of text
do get annoying.

My macro was originaly intended as more of a fun hack than a convenience. I
did it because it was annoying that almost every other aspect of GPG can be
tied into mutt... but not key signing.
