Help Reqd in mutt
Hi, I have the clarification following problems while using the mutt. 1. Its not giving any error but mail is not sent. How to know the error. How to de-bug such things. eg mutt -a file1 -a file2 -s Sample Subject mail Id 2 . Is there any command to send a list of files as attachments ? Instead of prefixing -a to each file ? 3. I need to send the contents of a file as Message body. How.? 4. What does mutt command returns.? 5. I need to move the list of files once the mail is sent ...ie. In the above command eg mutt -a file1 -a file2 -s Sample Subject mail Id Once the mails are sent I need to move file1, file2 to a different folder. I am a new member to mutt - community.. Thanks in Advance... to All !!! Thanks and Regards, Surya Kiran

How to de-bug such things. eg mutt -a file1 -a file2 -s Sample Subject mail Id How is mutt configured to send mail? What's the value of $sendmail and/or $smtp_url? 2 . Is there any command to send a list of files as attachments ? Instead of prefixing -a to each file ? To quote the man page: -a file [...] Attach a file to your message using MIME. To attach multiple files, separating filenames and recipient addresses with -- is mandatory, e.g. mutt -a img.jpg *.png -- addr1 addr2 3. I need to send the contents of a file as Message body. How.? Use the file as input, like so: mutt [EMAIL PROTECTED] message.txt That's in the mutt man page too. 4. What does mutt command returns.? You could find that out by just trying a test message... 5. I need to move the list of files once the mail is sent ...ie. In the above command eg mutt -a file1 -a file2 -s Sample Subject mail Id Once the mails are sent I need to move file1, file2 to a different folder. Well, mutt won't move them, but you can do it all by yourself: mutt -s subject -a file1 file2 body.txt \ mv file1 file2 folder/ Is there some reason you don't want to do that? A lot of this you can find out by just thumbing through the documentation. ~Kyle - -- Time goes, you say? Ah no!
