You should consider using expandtab in mail, as you can not know what the

 Procmail can make mail bounce? I thought it would just send mail to the

It only does this if it's invoked by the MTA, if you pipe mail to it

well, /dev/null.

  Unfortunately when list traffic is high, this causes a hugh

GnuPG + Mutt and Outlook + PGP-7.0 recipient and reverse.

2001-09-06 Thread Morten Liebach

Yo!

I'm trying to communicate encrypted with an Outlook user using PGP 7.0,
and I'm using mutt 1.3.21i and GnuPG-1.0.6.

I think I saw a way to encrypt with gpg and mutt so that Outlook users
don't get it as an attachment, but I can't find it again?

When I get an encrypted email I have to pipe the body through
'gpg --decrypt | less' to read it, and it's inconvenient.

How can I make PGP 7.0 messages readable by mutt? (I saw a procmail recipe
once, even had it in my .prcmailrc once, but accidentally deleted it :-()

Thanks

If mbox you'll have to convert it to maildir, there's some scripts to do

 This is what happened when the cursor is not being switched off/hidden.
 In Slang, I believe it is possible to hide the cursor using a Slang
 function call. If you compile Mutt with Ncurses, the cursor is hidden
 by default. Also, Ncurses program looks better since it will work with
 transparent terms while Slang set the background color to black.

I see the same thing with mutt-1.2.5i-curses on OpenBSD in an xterm.

 stumped. Anyone have any ideas?

A slightly long shot: what's your ~/muttrc||/etc/muttrc saying?

Or maybe you've copied your old one with nice colors and all from an
older version (though I think that would produce errors ...), if so it
might be because you are using vt220 and not pcvt25 terminal drivers,
but then again, you get colors with BitchX, so that's not it I guess ...

I run mutt-1.2.5 on OpenBSD-current, and I get colors in both xterm and

Viewing application/msword thingies.

2000-10-24 Thread Morten Liebach

Hi!

 I'm getting a lot af mail with *.doc files attached, and I'd like to
use catdoc to show them in mutt, how do I do that?

I have the line:

application/msword; catdoc -s iso8859-1 %s|less; cupiousoutput

in my ~/.mutt_mailcap, and an autoview antry for it in my ~/.muttrc, and
I still can't get the autoview thing to work, why?
I have to 'v' and then select the entry I wanna see.
The mail come from Outlook, so they are attached in a strange way, so
that might be it, here's an example how it looks when I 'v' a mail:

  I 1 no description [text/plain, 7bit, iso-8859-1, 0.1K]

Note: some thing got a little garbled in the cut'n paste, but you get
the picture.

I can highlight the msword entries, and they are shown bu catdoc, but
I'd like that to happen automagically, hence the autoview in my
~~/.muttrc.

How?

I set the charset catdoc uses to iso8859-1, but I will output letters
with umlauts instead of the danish æ, ø and å, how is that fixed?

Changing the MUA at work is simply impossible.

 has anyone gotten muttzilla working on freebsd? when i click a mailto link
 now, nothing at all happens, not even console complaints from netscape.

On OpenBSD I couldn't make it compile at all, so ... you're better of I
think, but I'd sure like to know more about it.

 I'll have a look at that. Thanks.

This _is_ a long shot, but: what happens when you try to invoke vim from
your shell?

Just a thought I got reading this thread, and I know I myself has
overlooked the blindingly obvious at times ...

 also does anyone know of a server on the west coast that actually works?

Try http://www.keyserver.net/, what I use, and it's AFAIK a network of
servers, so there will allways be one close by.

It's what I use.

 Hi, I'm running debian 2.2 woody and I just did apt-get install

Uhm ... 2.2 is Potato, Woody doesn't have a number yet.

 muttzilla and sure enough there was a debian muttzilla package, which
 apt faithfully installed and set up. Trouble is, there's no man page
 (like I'd read it anyhow..) and when I call a mail-to url in netscape,
 it just brings up the regular netscape mail program. Oh, I'm using
 netscape 4.75. Can anyone shed any light on this for me?
 thanks

Sure, read /usr/share/doc/muttzilla/INSTALL, that'll explain it, even I
could follow the instructions. :-)

 Hi Everybody,

Hi Parker.
 
 First of all, I can't figure out how to change the display Email address
 from "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" on the messages I
 send out.
 
 Put this in your ~/.muttrc

 set hdrs
 my_hdr From: Your Name [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 
 I think there are other ways, but I use the above solution.

 Also, sendmail takes care of sending my emails but, for security
 reasons, I thought i'd configure Mutt to connect to my ISP's SMTP server
 and shutdown sendmail altogether.  The less services running the
 better.  I'm not sure if this can be done or if it's wise to do so.  My
 guess is that fetchmail won't work properly because from what I
 understand, it hands off any new messages to sendmail and it takes care
 of the rest.  I remember reading somewhere in the documentation that
 Mutt can retrieve my mail from my POP account.  However, does sendmail
 need to be running to handle incoming mail properly?
 
 It's a good thing to close as many ports as possible, but if I were you
 I'd do this:

 Make fetchmail use `procmail' as mda (see man fetchmail, the `mda'
 option in the rc-file). Sendmail should be started as `sendmail -q30m',
 quoting from memory (I use exim, so I don't have the manpage), that way
 it will not listen on port 25, and both local mail and outgoing mail will
 be delivered normally.
 
 YMMV
 
 Ideally, I'd like to get Mutt configured so that I can start using it
 and in time, get to know it better.  It looks like a pretty capable mail
 client.

 It is, very much. :-)

 Does it fetch address regardless of your incoming mail box format? I
 thought this just goes after @ addresses. At work it seems to have a
 db, running sendmail, at home, I don't get this response, and I am
 running Qmail at home.

It has worked fine for me with mbox before, and I'm using maildir format
now, no problem.

How do you invoke lbdb-fetchaddr?

Yeah, I think you're right, unless someone here knows how ...

I'd better go find some GnuPG list somewhere.
