Yes, err, right -- but the user wanted to do this from a script, "non-interactively". Sure Mutt could be made to do a bounce with "push" but would you really recommend that? :-) Mikko -- // Mikko Hänninen, aka.

How to resend a mail?
Hello all, I am wondering how to resend a mail to another person? Here is my situation: I send a mail to someone, and the sent mail is stored in the directory which $record designates. Now I want to send the same mail to another person, can i do it with command options of mutt, without interactively invoking mutt. I have tried doing it with the following tricks: At first i run mutt interactively, compose the mail, and postpone the mail. I find the mail in the file "$postponed". When i enter "mutt -p", mutt will ask me several questions and display the postponed on screen. How can i let mutt send it immediately? -- Best regards, Song mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: How to resend a mail?
you could make a macro of it, i guess ... but I am not sure, i am a newbie and by hitting, "b", and putting your address in seems less of a problem then making a shell script.. unless you intend on bouncing to the same person all the time...

If you're not looking for necessarily a Mutt-specific answer, you could do this: First save the email to a separate file. Just making a Fcc to a folder that doesn't exist (and making sure your $mbox_type is mbox) should do it. Then just call sendmail on the file: sendmail -t [EMAIL PROTECTED] /path/to/folder/file That ought to re-send it... I forget the exact sendmail arguments for specifying the recipient list on the command line, but man sendmail is your friend for that. Hope this helps, Mikko -- // Mikko Hänninen, aka.
