Ctrl+G is the general abort key not only used in the compose

Oh, nice!  It really should be mentioned in the help page.

You've just shown me how to back out of the Really delete messages?
question without (a) deleting marked messages or (b) unmarking marked
messges (and without killing mutt).

Thanks!

how not to encrypt

2002-07-13 Thread Derrick 'dman' Hudson


Sometimes mutt thinks it is supposed to encrypt a message.  This is
fine since I can tell it not to, except for when I forget to.  The
problem begins when I press 'y' in the compose menu.  Mutt asks for a
key to encrypt with, but I might not have a public key for that
person.  (this really happened a few minutes ago)  I really wanted to
send the message plain-text, but I couldn't find any command to make
mutt cancel the encryption.  I ended up using my own key, then
forwarding it from my =Sent folder without encrypting it.

So, my question is :
After pressing send in the compose menu with encryption
selected, how can I cancel out of the pick a key menu?

Sorry, I had a brain fart.  I'm using version 1.4i.

(at least I know what to use now)
