Re: Inhibit display of MIME type during Autoview

Hit tab once or twice. 3) How do I set up a distributionlist using mutt's aliases? That's for sendmail's /etc/aliases, ideally. Or just separate the addresses with commas. 4) When I have marked several messages for deletion, and scroll the index of messages, the cursor jumps over the messages marked for deleting.
