mutt workflow and mail filtering

2019-05-05 Thread benfitzg
Hi, this isn't a mutt question but I figured I'd try here after a lot of fruitless searching. I moved to using offlineimap to sync my gmail to a local Maildir format, then I point mutt at the local filesystem. This has greatly improved my mutt experience. Loading large folders is far snappier.

/var/mail/$USER read-only

Hi, on building the latest mutt from https://gitlab.com/muttmua/mutt.git I have one odd problem. My linux mail box is /var/mail/$USER, previously I had read and deleted mails from this mailbox, now I get an error message from mutt, telling me the mailbox is read-only. Anyone know why this is?
