Can't set alternates
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? -- Nicolas Sebrecht

You can use less strict patterns of course. Thank you very much, it did solve the problem.

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 and replying. ^ I tend to think it should not be used when threading: replying and threading are two unrelated tasks. What about adding a $thread_regexp? -- Nicolas Sebrecht

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. -- Nicolas Sebrecht

mailing lists and gmail with mutt
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, -- Nicolas Sebrecht

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.

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).
