^M line endings

2023-10-20 Thread Ralf Hildebrandt via Mutt-users
Hi!

I'm getting a few mails which use "^M" line endings, which mutt seems
to ignore when displaying the body of the email.

How can I make mutt properly display the mail.

Using
Mutt 2.1.4 (2021-12-11)

Using these pager settings:

set pager=builtin
set pager_context = 3
set pager_stop

The XMailer header of the "^M"-mail program is
X-Mailer: Bp Event 11.0n88

Slowness when coloring the index

I'm using this to color spammy mails in the index:

folder-hook . "uncolor index *"
folder-hook restore@backup.invalid "color index red   default '~h ^X-Spam:'"

That's working OK, but it's quite slow. It seems that mutt is fetching
the whole body (instead of just the headers). But I can live with that.

When I'm done processing that particular mailbox, I'm marking all messages 
deleted.
This process again fetches all mails, before marking them delete -- and I fail 
to understand why...

S/MIME from the command line?

2015-08-31 Thread Ralf Hildebrandt
I found:
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.mutt.user/40965

And right now I'm trying to send S/MIME signed mails from the command
line.

Invoking mutt interactively using my custom config:
% mutt -F ~/muttrc
works as expected (mail is being signed, sender is set correctly and
so on)

Invoking mutt from within a script like:

mutt -F ~/muttrc \
 -s "some subject" \
 -a $somefile -- "${addr}" < mailbody.txt

just sends an UNSIGNED mail (but at least it sends an email!)

I see. I have a similar problem: 
I have multiple mailboxes on localhost:

I can only open ONE, if I try to open the second (using c and typing
the mailbox URL), I get errors (cannot read which, they disappear too

 of software.

Which it isn't.

 I (and others on the list using Mutt) have never noticed this bug that the
 (l)users speak of, since Mutt handles mailing lists VERY well.  The
 complaints come from those using LookOut!, AOL, and other Windoze MUAs.  The
 list administrator says that this is just Mailman's standard behavior and it
 can't be changed.  I'm almost 100% sure that this can be easily changed.
 
 So is this a case of users not knowing how to properly configure/use their
 MTAs, or is it a case of the list administrator not knowing how to properly
 setup the list?  I posted this here since this list runs Mailman and I've
 heard no comments here about this.  There also seems to be a good number of
 knowledgeable people here.

You can configure mailman to add a reply-to: header (to the lists's
address), which is not the default.

the certificate of the IMAP server, I'd still like to know how I can make

Locking! YOur program has to lock the mailbox it wants to append to, then

Of course. Now, mutt invokes sendmail -- I see no reason why it shouldn't be
able to call an MSA instead. You can even specify HOW mutt should call
sendmail /qmail, whatever)

Problems with PMMail OS/2 and pgp encrytped mails

2000-08-04 Thread Ralf Hildebrandt

Hi!

I have a problem sending gpg encrpyted mail to my pal who's using PMMail
OS/2 and PGP-5.x.
He had a correspondence with the author of PMMail and that's what came out:
Comments?

When I go into the pmmail inbox of my account and manually pgp v the

work as I would love it to ;-)

Great! I was going to send it back to you and see if you could
successfully use PGP v on it.

OK, so we know that GnuPG and PGP 5 can cooperate.

message to know for sure but I think PMMail/2 might be having
problems with "Content-Type: application/pgp-encrypted" or possibly
with the way the message is MIME encoded.

I guess that is the problem somehow.

Yes, this is the problem.

The message you are receiving has its body broken into sections
(separated by "--Eldrgvv4EWsIM1sO"). Only sections identified as
"Content-Type: text/plain" or "Content-Type: text/html" or
"Content-Type: text" are displayed in the message read window of
PMMail/2. All other Content-Types are displayed as attachments.

If your correspondents' email client insists on encoding and sending
PGP encrypted text as "Content-Type: application/octet-stream" then
PMMail/2 will not be able to display and automatically decrypt it.

PGP encryptd text is just plain text so there is no reason why this
person's email client should send it as "Content-Type:
application/octet-stream".

Oh, as far as I see it is not possible. At least not on purpose, but just
on coincidence. And then only with a method which only lets me read my
mail but not the recipient. That's really something I call secure ;-)

LOL!:-)

Maybe you should add a signature to all your mail saying, "sorry, I
can't trust you enough to let you read your mail." :-)


# COMMAND-LINE SPECIFICATION

Armor = off
ArmorLines = 0
AutoServerFetch = 1
Compress = 1
EncryptToSelf = 1
FastKeyGen = 0
HTTPKeyServerHost = pgp.ai.mit.edu
HTTPKeyServerPort = 11371
Language = us
LanguageFile = language50.txt
MyName = "Florian Piekert"
NoBatchInvalidKeys = 0
Comment = PGP 5.0 for OS/2
CharSet = cp850
version = 4

The only differences between your settings above and mine are that I
have "EncryptToSelf = 0", I do not have "MyName" set and I have
"version=3" (this solved some problems with interacting with PGP
2.6x).

I seriously doubt that any of those differences are causing PMMail/2
to magically call PGP for no good reason.

However, it might be worth changing "EncryptToSelf" to "=0" just to
see if it helps.

 IMHO qmail has the advance to support the mail-dir format. At home I
 fetch the mails with fetchmail, qmail stores them in Maildirs and
 those are accessed with mutt.

Sendmail: Shiva as a postman. Many arms delivering mail, dancing,
taking drugs, destroying as it sees fit. Often makes creative changes
to the mail for kicks, but ultimately can be persuaded to do anything
with the right incantation...and that includes giving you other
people's mail.

With sendmail -- a program that sends mail :)

 Mail that I'm sending doesn't seem to get out - I think it's

Configure sendmail, postfix, exim, qmail (the MTA of your choice).

Mailbox read only? was Re: setting envelope from how?

my_hdr From: Lutz Jaenicke [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 
 This is not the envelope from...

But it gets derived from that. Anyway, the reason why that didn't work was
because I set my_hdr From: from within a send-hook only...

 Uh, right now this is a SUSE box with sendmail. I fiddled with sendmail.cf
 and filled in the correct masquerading stuff. Sendmail sucks. Big time.

Now I have another problem:

I set up a simple .procmailrc :
:0:
$HOME/Mail/inbox

which is supposed to deliver all mail to ~/Mail/inbox
That works.

Unfortunately mutt (1.1.12i) can't delete anything in this mailbox:

Mailbox is read-only.

($HOME is mounted via NFS)

Any ideas?

I trust them to be spectacularly unable to get anything right,

 Hi ,
 
 I just started using Mutt some days back . The transition is from using Pine .
 I am facing a slight problem when sending mails to some servers . 
 My internet domain is morelinux.com and I have set that in the From field of 
 my .muttrc file . But what happens is that while my smtp is talking to the 
 remote SMTP it gives the localdomain ( andromeda.qvpl.co.in ) which is not a 
 valid internet domain and hence the mail bounces . 

Configure your sendmail correctly.

 Thru PINE this doesnt occur as long as my From Field has a valid internet 
 domain .

Pine uses SMTP directly. But I wonder which SMTP server PINE uses??
