Re: POP accounts and replys

On Mon, Dec 06, 1999 at 11:51:50AM +1100, you, the extraordinary Andrew Clark, opined:
 I've been told that mutt can do what I want.  I want to set up the
 following:
 
 1. Collect mail from 2 pop accounts (user1 and user2)
 2. When I reply to a message addressed to user1, the from header should be
 user1, if I reply to a message addressed to user2, the from header should
 be user2.
 
 Is it possible to get mutt to do this?  I have not been able to figure out
 how yet.  If it is possible, can someone give me a brief run down on the
 process? If it isn't, can anyone tell me a Linux mail client that can?
 

I do this: Use procmail to sort incoming mail into
folders; here's a fragment of procmailrc:

-
  

# Sort by POP server account


:0:
* Received: from pop2.sympatico.ca
Pop/Sympatico


:0:
* Received: from mail.iname.com
Pop/Iname

-

And from .muttrc:

-

folder-hook Pop/Iname my_hdr From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
folder-hook Pop/Sympatico my_hdr From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

-

Cheers, N.

You can't do it with mutt. However, you can use fetchmail to download you're
mail from you're POP accounts and put it straight in to you're mailbox(es)
