Can't set alternates

2010-07-02 Thread Nicolas Sebrecht
Hi,

I've added this line in my muttrc file

  set alternates=...@email.address

but got 

  alternates : unknown variable

(translated message) with mutt v1.5.18.

Any idea on what's going on?

 Since some time alternates has become a command:

 See man(5) muttrc.
 
 You can use less strict patterns of course.

Thank you very much, it did solve the problem. I refered to this page :

  http://www.mutt.org/doc/manual/manual-6.html

May I ask why alternates is still in the 6.3 Configuration variables
chapter?

  Works fine here. There is a setting that might be resposible though.
  Check reply_regexp
  
  Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think that particular setting would 
  remove a thing form the subject. The manual says:
  
A regular expression used to recognize reply messages when threading

I tend to think it should not be used when threading: replying and
threading are two unrelated tasks.

What about adding a $thread_regexp?

There seems to be a workaround. 

Instead of basing the filter rules against the List-Id field,
imapfilter can easily parse both the Cc: and To: headers (contain_cc()
and contain_to()) and copy the mails to the good folder
(copy_messages()).

I expect it should work but as the folders are labels at Google, I can't
say. I didn't tested and probably won't because I've already switched to
gmx.

mailing lists and gmail with mutt

2009-05-02 Thread Nicolas Sebrecht
Hi folks!

(My question is not purely mutt related. I'm posting here because I
think here is where I can have the best answers).

Recently, I moved one of my email address to gmail. The problem is that
Google thinks it's a good idea to not show what _they_ consider to be
duplicated mails.

I have one folder per mailing list. When I send/receive emails to a
mailing list, I expect to have a copy into my INBOX and another copy
into the dedicated folder (e.g. the sender did 
To: list-address
Cc: me
)

Also, I'm filtering emails with imapfilter. The rules are based on
fields like List-Id. What's happening quite often is that when
somebody answers (both to a mailing list and me), the first message
I receive is that which addressed to me. As the second mail is not
downloaded, it breaks the threads in the folder of the mailing list.

Is there a way to tell Google to NOT do what _they_ think is the best
for me?
Or maybe I missed a mutt configuration option?


My web researchs didn't help me.

Thanks,

 I'm supposedly subscribed to it but I never get any of the messages so I
 figured I probably couldn't send any emails to it.

Then, you should open a bug. I didn't try to subscribe but the website
says you can subscribe here Maybe there's something wrong with the
mailing list. If it doesn't exist anymore, the website should be
updated.

 Thanks for the response.  The problems have become less frequent with
 successive versions; maybe I'll just have to follow the repo more
 closely for a while.

I hope so. Also, you can open a bug to explain your problem and ask for
a step by step proccess to know how give more relevant information.

However, you should have some time to waste that way.

 I know this is a little off topic, but I have the impression that there

offlineimap has its own mailing list.

   It randomly crashes or hangs all the time, about
 once per day on average, but that figure is a little misleading because
 some days it crashes 5-10 times/day and other times it runs fine for 1+
 week without crashing.

 Has anybody had similar experiences with offlineimap or am I the only
 lucky one?

I use offlineimap here and had some similar crashes (not that much
however). The last version from the repository works fine here but I'm
not using the deamon mode.

 How do you implement it in the muttrc? Or do you use tools like procmail.

I have those lines in my muttrc :
macro pager \Cxs pipe-messagebogofilter -s  echo \Mail registered as 
spam.\enter Mail registered as spam
macro index \Cxs pipe-messagebogofilter -s  echo \Mail registered as 
spam.\enter Mail registered as spam
macro pager \Cxus pipe-messagebogofilter -Sn  echo \Mail unregistered 
as spam.\enter Mail unregistered as spam
macro index \Cxus pipe-messagebogofilter -Sn  echo \Mail unregistered 
as spam.\enter Mail unregistered as spam
macro pager \Cxg pipe-messagebogofilter -n  echo \Mail registered as 
good.\enter Mail registered as good
macro index \Cxg pipe-messagebogofilter -n  echo \Mail registered as 
good.\enter Mail registered as good
macro pager \Cxug pipe-messagebogofilter -Ns  echo \Mail unregistered 
as good.\enter Mail unregistered as good
macro index \Cxug pipe-messagebogofilter -Ns  echo \Mail unregistered 
as good.\enter Mail unregistered as good
macro pager \Cxt pipe-messagebogofilter -tenter Check
macro index \Cxt pipe-messagebogofilter -tenter Check

For instance, I can tell bogofilter this mail is a spam by pressing :
Ctrl+x then the 's' key.

As I use a maildir, I also wrote a little wrapper of bogofilter :

$ cat bin/bogofilter-wrapper.sh
#!/bin/sh

mailbox=$1
spambox=$2
[[ ! -z $2 ]]  spambox='[Gmail].Spam'

src=/home/nicolas/Mail/${mailbox}/INBOX/new/
dest=/home/nicolas/Mail/${mailbox}/${spambox}/new/


echo Looking for spam.

spam=0
for mail in $(find ${src} -type f) ; do
bogofilter -I ${mail}  {
echo Spam found : $mail
spam=$((spam+1))
mv $mail $dest
}
total=$((total+1))
done

echo Total spam found : $spam/$total
#EOF-

I call this script like this from mutt :
macro pager \Cwf pipe-messagebogofilter-wrapper.sh 
'nicolas_MAILBOX_gmail.com' '[Gmail].Spam'enter Filter mails
macro index \Cwf pipe-messagebogofilter-wrapper.sh
